The last quarter of a century has been marked by a relentless drive to
decipher first genes and then entire genomes, spawning the field of
genomics. The fruits of this work already include the genome
sequences of 599 viruses and viroids, 205 naturally occurring
plasmids, 185 organelles, 31 eubacteria, seven archaea, one
fungus, two animals and one plant.
The sequence of the human genome is of interest in several
respects. It is the largest genome to be extensively sequenced so far,
being 25 times as large as any previously sequenced genome
and eight times as large as the sum of all such genomes. It is the
first vertebrate genome to be extensively sequenced. And, uniquely, it
is the genome of our own species.

We thank Compaq Computer Corporations's High Performance Technical
Computing Group for providing a Compaq Biocluster (a 27 node
configuration of AlphaServer ES40s, containing 108 CPUs, 216 GB
RAM, serving as compute nodes and a file server with one terabyte of
secondary storage) to assist in the annotation and analysis. Compaq
provided the systems and implementation services to set up and manage
the cluster for continuous use by members of the sequencing consortium.
Platform Computing Ltd. provided its LSF scheduling and loadsharing
software without license fee.

The Paracel BlastMachine runs parallelized versions of NCBI BLAST, PSIBLAST, and MegaBLAST. It is an Intel-based cluster, consisting of 6 dualprocessor nodes. Each node contains two 933 MHz Intel PIII processors and
2 Gigabytes of memory. The operating system is a proprietary cluster variant of
Linux. One dual-processor node acts as the head node, scheduling and controlling
jobs. 10 processors are available to run sequence search jobs. Communication
between nodes and with the fileserver is via a 100 MHz Ethernet connection.
The BlastMachine accelerates the BLAST algorithms by dividing a job across
multiple processors. It can divide both the database and the query among
groups of processors. The number of pieces a database will be divided into is
determined at the time the database is formatted on the BlastMachine. The
BlastMachine always divides a given database the same way to insure precise
repeatability of results.
The BlastMachine has its own queueing and job control system. This system is
accessed from a host computer using the client program pb. The system attempts
to maximize total throughput; different search jobs can and will run simultaneously.
The actual number of processors assigned to any given job varies dynamically
with machine load.
