[I'd sent the following to Angel, repeating for the list since we've opened
up the thread]
------------------

Hi Angel,

Insilicos has a couple of grants involving cloud computing with TPP and
CPAS.  We've been working in the context of Amazon Web Services.

Haven't really gone after the parallelization yet, mostly been working on
ubiquitous handling of compressed file formats so far.

Let me know if I can help at all.

Re-reading that, it's a bit vague: specifically we're making things like
.mzML.gz work as seamlessly as .mzML for input and output, the idea being
that bandwidth and storage costs are two things you'd like to minimize on
the cloud.  Code and build scripts for TPP on Amazon EC2 can be found in the
TPP SVN repository.

Hi Angel,

Distribution of omics data analysis is an interest of mine as well.

I'm not sure what you're looking for here: are you seeking students?  Or 
are you just gathering info about cloud computing?

Two projects I've been involved with that involve distributed processing 
for proteomics: one, Swift, a protein ID system I designed and helped 
develop at Mayo, used grid engine to distribute processing and search 
tasks on a cluster.

In addition, at my current employer, Proteome Software, I'm developing a 
new product for QC of LCMS data; one model involves us hosting it at 
Amazon Web Services.  We're interested to see whether folks are willing 
to buy it that way.

Let me know if I can help in any way.
