Summary:Scientists studying organisms face challenges when identifying related literature that pertains to the organisms under investigation. This is due to the presence of vast biomedical literature and the limitations of existing automated mechanisms to search through the published literature for the pertinent information. This study proposes the use of the Genomic Literature Area Sequence Search (GLASS) tool to search through the existing literature for relevant information and thus to facilitate information reuse as well as to provide quicker access to the information that otherwise often requires manual, time intensive intervention. By indexing the literature content and then distributing the indexed data across a cluster to provide a faster and robust search process, the application searches through the literature for DNA sequences requested by the user.
