SLIM Search opens access for biological research possibilities thatpreviously were either impossible or just too tedious and time consuming tocontemplate. A major computational hurdle in genomics research has beensequence searching and the associated hardware necessities it requires.Through these new product releases, Cartesian Gridspeed overcomes thesecomputational hurdles by empowering a single work station running SLIM Searchwith the computing horse power of a multi-node supercomputer cluster.
A Revolutionary, Disruptive Technology
SLIM Technology is a lightning-fast, memory-efficient "disruptive"technology that is not only the enabling technology for the entire disciplineof personalized medicine but is also a unique, powerful research tool for oneof the fastest growing research fields. Cartesian Gridspeed's SLIM Searchopens new doors for research through a revolutionary advancement in the speedof information processing for genomic research. SLIM Search delivers greaterspeed performing up to 10,000 times faster than a fully optimized BLAST, whichis a standard tool of the industry. SLIM Search can assemble a human genomein half a day on a desktop workstation instead of months on a multi-milliondollar computer cluster using BLAST. SLIM Search can deliver daily updates ofan orthogonal-comparison, comparative-genomics database of every known gene ona single PC -- which might only be possible yearly on a hundred-node Linuxcluster running BLAST. In a typical genomics production environment, SLIM candeliver throughput improvements of 100 to 3000 times greater with equal orbetter sensitivity. These types of benefits are revolutionary inbio-informatics.
