Abstract

 

With the explosion of sequence and structural information available to researchers, the field of bioinformatics is playing an increasingly large role in the study of fundamental biomedical problems. This information is generally available through the Internet and access to the World Wide Web. This unit provides an introduction to the internet?how it is organized, how you connect to it, using email and file transfer protocols, and finding your way around the Web.

Figures

  •   Figure a0.1H.1 Performance of various types of Internet connections, by maximum throughput (in megabits per sec). The numbers indicated in the graph refer to peak performance; often the actual performance of any given method may be on the order of one‐half slower, depending on configurations and system conditions.

  •   Figure a0.1H.5 Using Fetch to download a file. An anonymous FTP session is established with the molecular biology FTP server at the University of Indiana (top) to download the ClustalW alignment program (bottom). Notice the difference between this GUI‐based program and the UNIX equivalent illustrated in Figure .
