MAPPING OF GENES USING CLOUD TECHNOLOGIES

Abstract

Abstract Bioinformatics is a much updated topic for the recent researchers. There are various tasks of bioinformatics, like Alignment and comparison of DNA and RNA, Gene mapping on chromosomes, Protein structure prediction, gene finding from DNA sequences etc. Mapping of gene is the procedure of calculating the distance between the genes in chromosomes. In the real time application the medicine researchers goes for processing huge amount of data that may comes from different clusters or from different location. The mapping results also differ from each other with huge differences. In order to process a huge amount of data we need such a good platform which will serve without fail. Cloud computing is such a good technique that can be applied for various data as well as a huge amount of data to compare, distinguish, or simply for mapping the genes in chromosomes. In the field of cloud computing, Apache hadoop is a platform which provides a good platform for processing huge amount of data. Till now Apache hadpoop is having the similar type of application in Facebook & Yahoo. It carries the properties like fault tolerance which can be very useful in securing the data. In this paper we have discussed about the application of cloud technologies in Gene Mapping in chromosomes and as a real time application we have discussed about the Apache hadoop that can be applied for this purpose also.
