-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 +
+ +Jalview includes clients for a variety of web services for both + bioinformatic data retrieval and analysis. +
+ 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.
The Web + Services Preference panel controls the display and appearance of the + submission and analysis services in the Web Services + menu.
+ More about Jalview's Web Services
Jalview's
+ distributed computations utilise SOAP and REST
+ web services exposing sequence alignment, analysis, and secondary
+ structure prediction programs. Originally, Jalview 2's services were
+ maintained by the Barton group at the University of Dundee, and ran
+ programs on the Life Sciences High-performace Computing Cluster. With
+ the advent of JABAWS,
+ however, it is possible for anyone to host Jalview web services.
