Many bioinformatics sites have managed local bio-databases, including major databases such as GenBank and PIR with update load. We have developed several programs to monitor the update status of these databases and to FTP them automatically. These programs can be used for maintaining local bio-databases as recent versions and providing up-to-date databases through FTP sites. Currently, the program serves major bio-databases and will extend to accommodate many more bio-databases.Availability: The trial version of this system is available from http://gate.smallsoft.co.kr:8088/bioftp.

Abstract. Today, most companies think company-wide collaboration is essential for enforcing their strategies, and actually work collaboratively. However, they recklessly work collaboratively in most cases not to fall behind in competition in their industry without considering the accurate definition and goal of collaboration. To address this issue, it is necessary to evaluate the opportunity of collaboration, and suggest a solution after identifying barriers to collaboration. In this study, an analysis is made of barriers to collaboration in the R&D team through a questionnaire survey for researchers in the KISTI National Institute of Supercomputing and Networking (NISN), based on knowledge about collaboration and barriers to collaboration.
