Abstract:
The use of high-throughput DNA sequencing and proteomic methods has led to an unprecedented increase in the amount of genomic and proteomic data. Application of computing technologies and development of computational tools to analyze and present these data has not kept pace with the accumulation of information. Here, we discuss the use of different database systems to store biological information and mention some of the key emerging computing technologies that are likely to have a key role in the future of bioinformatics.
