BIRCH on HPC systems
From Bioinformatics.Org Wiki
[return to Release To Do List]
Rationale: HPC systems are generally pretty opaque about what is on the system and how to use tools. Nowhere is the user-oriented advantages of BIRCH needed more than on multiuser HPC systems.
While BIRCH has evolved from day 1 as a multiuser resource, there are certainly going to be challenges on major platforms that will need to be addressed. This page will be the place for making BIRCH the best solution for a user accessible HPC system.
The test platform will be the Digital Alliance of Canada.
