This paper presents the interdisciplinary area of networked genomic research and medicine. We first illustrate the most significant issues involved in these activities. Then, we illustrate an ongoing research activity in this area, and the relevant results obtained by using a network architecture designed for optimising the distribution of a large amount of genomic data-set. This architecture, based on an evolved Next Steps in Signalling, addresses the major challenges for managing genomic data-sets over a network with limited resources. Research results have been obtained in the framework of the project Advanced networking for EU genomic RESearch, which is part of the GÉANT/GN3plus project, co-funded by the European Commission.

Abstract
This paper presents the interdisciplinary area of networked genomic research and medicine. We first illustrate the most significant issues involved in these activities. Then, we illustrate an ongoing research activity in this area, and the relevant results obtained by using a network architecture designed for optimising the distribution of a large amount of genomic data-set. This architecture, based on an evolved Next Steps in Signalling, addresses the major challenges for managing genomic data-sets over a network with limited resources. Research results have been obtained in the framework of the project Advanced networking for EU genomic RESearch, which is part of the GÉANT/GN3plus project, co-funded by the European Commission.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
