Web services
-Originally Jalview used SRS server to retrieve sequence features for a given - alignment. In addition certain remote alignment programs could be called from - the Jalview interface and the results displayed in a new alignment panel.
-The main emphasis of the current development of the Jalview Project is to implement
- various sequence alignment programs, tree analysis, PCA algorithms on a large
- cluster based witihin the Barton Group. Jalview will be able to call these remote
- procedures without the user having to install any new software.
- The main advantage of using these remote web services is that the computing
- power available is much greater than that of the users work station.
Web services
+ +A variety of web services are available from the Alignment window's + Web Service menu.
+Jalview's distributed computations are SOAP based services exposing + protein sequence alignment and secondary structure prediction programs. These services actually run + on the cluster based in the School of Life Sciences, University of + Dundee, and are maintained by the Barton group. +
+Web Service Dialog Box
+
++ This dialog box is displayed when a web service job + is submitted. It gives the name of the service and + any method citation information, and monitors the + progress of the calculation. The cancel button will + permanently cancel the job, but this is only + possible for some services. +
