Scalable Genomic Context Analysis with GCsnap2 on HPC Clusters

GCsnap2 Cluster is a scalable, high performance tool for genomic context analysis, developed to overcome the limitations of its predecessor, GCsnap1 Desktop. Leveraging distributed computing with mpi4py[.]futures, GCsnap2 Cluster achieved a 22x improvement in execution time and can now perform genomic context analysis for hundreds of thousands of input sequences in HPC clusters. Its modular architecture enables the creation of task-specific workflows and flexible deployment in various computational environments, making it well suited for bioinformatics studies of large-scale datasets. This work highlights the potential for applying similar approaches to solve scalability challenges in other scientific domains that rely on large-scale data analysis pipelines.

Tunable and Portable Extreme-Scale Drug Discovery Platform at Exascale: the LIGATE Approach

Today digital revolution is having a dramatic impact on the pharmaceutical industry and the entire healthcare system. The implementation of machine learning, extreme-scale computer simulations, and big data analytics in the drug design and development process offers an excellent opportunity to lower the risk of investment and reduce the time to the patient. Within the LIGATE project, we aim to integrate, extend, and co-design best-in-class European components to design Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD) solutions exploiting today's high-end supercomputers and tomorrow's Exascale resources, fostering European competitiveness in the field. The proposed LIGATE solution is a fully integrated workflow that enables to deliver the result of a virtual screening campaign for drug discovery with the highest speed along with the highest accuracy. The full automation of the solution and the possibility to run it on multiple supercomputing centers at once permit to run an extreme scale in silico drug discovery campaign in few days to respond promptly for example to a worldwide pandemic crisis.
