Abstract :
We describe the implementation of GBTK (Grid BLAST Tool Kit), a lightweight application specific grid framework for BLAST, for geographically distributed high performance computing (HPC) systems. This framework was built on the concept of synchronized Web services using RPC (remote procedure calls) encoded as XML (extensible Markup Language).
