Workshop zum ViCE Bio-Informatik Usecase
Today the ViCE bio-informatics subproject got concluded at the joint ViCE and Galaxy workshop started at the 11th faculty in building 106. The concept of virtual research environments and how to deploy them on various research infrastructures got presented.
Workshop on ViCE and Elixir in building 106 at 11th faculty
Wrapping up a two-year project on sustainable virtual research environments (VREs), the ViCE Project will present it's tool box e.g. the ViCE Registry (across-platform image registry for virtual collaborative environments) as well as infrastructure supporting the key principles for VREs such as accessibility and reproducibility. Additionally, talks on the preparation of the large scale research infrastructures like de.NBI and bwCloud as well as HPC were given.
Virtualization is a paradigm shift for university computer centers. They have to offer significant range of research infrastructures without overstretching it's personnel. Virtualized Research Environments could help to redistribute the tasks between computer centers and research working groups with high demand on compute resources. HPC, bwCloud and hybrid cluster operations concepts got as well presented as bwCloud and bwLehrpool. The latter one to be used in classrooms to work interactively and introduce students into actual research workflows. These talks were be followed by the scientists's perspecitve: Applications and use cases specific to the Galaxy platform, with special guests from important Galaxy hot spots across Europe and the US. The ViCE project was sponsored by the MWK of Baden-Württemberg state and coordinated by the eScience dept. at the computer center of the university of Freiburg. The bio-informatics subproject was coordinated by ZBSA, the group of Prof. Backofen.
