Hello ,I amhopping soeone can help me get to the correct answer here. We are looking to create a Bioinformatics area at this university. My concern is can the Biology department be restricted to a Biocluster(because Bioinformatics problems are/may not be so called paralle aware)for it's high performance computing? My background is in mathematics and computing so I am not equipped, per se, to assess this but given that you have other areas in the Biology department(molecular for one) and this will be,initially, the only cluster, will it not restrict or make it difficult to perform true parallel processing, as you could with a Beowulf cluster?
