Keep Your Important SSH Session Running when You Disconnect from Server !!!
As a Bioinformatician/ Computational biologist we swim in the ocean of genomic/proteomics data, and play with them with an ease. In our day to day simulation, analysis, comparative study we do need to run exhaustive programs, which might take more than a week. In such cases we do need to disconne...Tags: Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Linux, SSH, Session, Disconnect, Running, Screen, Example

Check the Size of a directory & Free disk space.
The amount of databases we bioinformatician deal are just HUGE … In such cases, we always need to check our server for free spaces etc. I planned this article to explains 2 simple commands that most bioinformatician want to know when they start using Linux / BioLinux. First: Size of a dire...Tags: Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Linux, du, df, Size, File, Usage, Space, Check, Linux

Find certain files/documents in Linux OS
As bioinformatician I know the fact that we usually handle the large dataset and lost in the huge numbers of files and folders. In order to search the missing file a strong search command is required. The Linux Find Command is one of the most important and much used command in Linux sytems. Find ...Tags: Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Linux, Find, Search, Look, Example

Check Linux server configuration !!
Bioinformatician uses servers for computational analysis. Sometime we need to check the server details before running our programs or tools. Here I am showing some basic commands using them you can gather the system/server information.To check what version of Operating System is installed on the ...Tags: Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Linux, Server, Configuration, Example

Monitor running jobs on Linux server
You as a bioinformatican run lots of program on your servers. Sometime the shared server is also used by your colleague. If server is busy you sometime need to check the running programs and want to monitor the running programs as well. The "top" command will come in handy when you need to find o...Tags: Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Linux, Command, Top, Running, Processes, Server, Monitor

Linux Sort Commands for Bioinformatics
Almost all the scripting languages such as Perl, Python etc have built-in sort, but unfortunately none of them are as flexible as sort command. But one when it come to space efficiency GNU sort stands at the top. It can sort a 20Gb file with less than 2Gb memory. It is not trivial to implement so...Tags: Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Linux, Sort, Example

Is Linux OS necessary for Bioinformatics? If yes which one is the best for NGS analysis.
I am currently working on NGS, and looking for a nice OS to handle huge amount of genomics data with an ease. Someone suggested me that Window OS will be a bad idea to use for NGS analysis. I need your valuable suggestion for the best. ThanksTags: NGS, OS, Linux, Window, Best

- We use couple of hundreads of command in daily basis. Most of them are actually repeated several time. The question remain open how do I search old command history under bash shell and modify or reuse it? Now a days almost all modern shell allows you to search command history if enabled by user. ...
