Popis: | Execution performance of bioinformatics workflows in cloud federated environments is strongly affected by data storage and retrieval, due to the large volumes of information in genomic sequences. This paper presents a storage policy for files used in a typical bioinformatics application with genomic data that aims to reduce their transfer time and then contribute to a faster execution of the workflow. We discuss a case study using the BioNimbuZ federated cloud platform. Our results show that this storage policy significantly improved times for transferring files, and thus lowered the total time to execute the workflow. |
