Abstract
In this chapter, the ProGenGrid (Proteomics and Genomics Grid) research project, which started in 2004, is described. It is a Grid Problem Solving Environment, specialized for the Bioinformatics domain, which aims at providing an integrated environment in order to compose, schedule and monitor biological applications in a Computational Grid. The main feature offered by this environment is the possibility to use a friendly web interface for composing workflow jobs, scheduled on different grid middleware.
