We propose to examine the feasibility of Cloud Computing for Physics and Bionformatics e-Science by porting a set of scientific applications in these domains to a variety of Cloud platforms. This work will be carried out in conjunction with application scientists in Bioinformatics and Physics. The applications that have been selected for piloting on Cloud platforms have been chosen because they present challenges in data volume, processing requirements or close-coupled parallel execution that are typical of most scientific HPC software. Project outputs will be a study of HPC Cloud feasibility which will compare performance of the selected software on a variety of Cloud platforms, seek to determine best practice for Cloud deployment of HPC software both generally and in the chosen domains, and make general recommendations about the use of Clouds for scientific HPC software within an institutional context.

我们建议通过将这些领域的一系列科学应用程序移植到各种云平台上，来研究物理学和生物信息学电子科学云计算的可行性。这项工作将与生物信息学和物理学的应用科学家一起进行。之所以选择在云平台上进行试点的应用程序，是因为它们在数据量、处理要求或紧密耦合并行执行方面存在挑战，而这些都是大多数科学HPC软件的典型特征。项目产出将是对HPC云可行性的研究，该研究将比较所选软件在各种云平台上的性能，寻求确定HPC软件在一般情况下和所选领域中的云部署的最佳实践，并就在机构环境中将云用于科学HPC软件提出一般性建议。
