Abstract
The amount of data generated throughout the modern drug discovery process has grown dramatically in the recent years. Thus, scalability of the computational methods used to process and analyze this data is critical for rapid discovery of lead compounds. This talk presents scalable computational approaches that help solve some of the problems arising in virtual screening of combinatorial libraries of chemical compounds. It will also discuss the applicability of these approaches to other problems, e.g., protein sequence analysis.
