Biology White Papers

Briefing in Computational Biology

Overview Biology underlies all the life sciences. Without computational approaches, our potential to learn and understand the complex relationships between and among the subsets (biological response, biodiversity, genetics, medicine, etc.) would be totally thwarted.

With this white paper, review the field of Computational Biology (CB) to identify the IT challenges and opportunities, and how Sun™ can provide a deep and broad product to address these challenges. Also review a broad vision that will enable our customers and partners to attack these challenges and exploit these opportunities over the long-term.
