Description
Bioinformatics: Databases, Tools, and Algorithms fills the need for a well-illustrated, affordable book that provides a balanced coverage of topics keeping in view the needs of students of both engineering and life science.
The book describes the methods used to store, retrieve, and analyse data using various tools. It concentrates on three major database clusters and relevant software tools that offer free access and analysis through the Internet. The algorithms that decide the behavioral aspects of these tools are also dealt with in considerable detail. The book does not assume any prior knowledge and includes appendices on biology and basic computing to provide the necessary background. With its lucid style, the book encourages the application of bioinformatics tools. Its coverage and presentation make it useful to students as well as practising professionals.
