Given in May 2010 for Biology of Genomes, analysis of Heteroplasmy using Galaxy Cloud. This was when Galaxy Cloud and Cloudman were first becoming mature.

each with ~10 of copies of the mitochondrial genome • Heteroplasmy refers to variation among the mitochondrial genomes within a cell or individual • Maternal, multi-copy inheritance
methods best be made accessible to scientists? • How to facilitate transparent communication of analyses? • How best to ensure that analyses are reproducible?
generated • History system facilitates and tracks multistep analyses • Exact parameters of a step can always be inspected, and easily rerun • Workflow system
for local installation and customization • Easily integrate new tools • Easy to deploy and manage on nearly any (unix) system • Run jobs on existing compute clusters • But, requires an existing computational resource on which to be deployed
Spectrum from infrastructure as a service (virtual machines, e.g. Amazon EC2) to software as a service (e.g. Google docs) • Goal for Galaxy: deliver the provider independence of an IaaS based solution, while approaching the ease of use of a SaaS based solution
instance goes away? • Big problem as instances get more distributed, but even “Galaxy main” may not be there forever • Enhanced support for dumping data, pages, workflows from Galaxy with human readable data and sufficient metadata to load into a new Galaxy • But some mechanism must exist to archive the data that underlies publications • Implementing support for depositing data and metadata directly into such repositories, e.g. with Dryad
(UCSD), Ross Lazarus (Harvard Medical School) • Funding from NHGRI, NSF, Penn State, Emory, Beckman Foundation, Pennsylvania Department of Health • The Galaxy Team at Penn State and Emory
