NAME¶

Genome - pipelines, tools, and data management for genomics

SYNOPSIS¶

 use Genome;
 # modules in the Genome namespace will now dynamically load
 @i = Genome::InstrumentData::Illumina->get(...);
 $m = Genome::Model::SomaticVariation->create(...);

DESCRIPTION¶

This is the base namespace module for the Genome software tree.

That tree has several primary components:

 Genome::Model:         a data modeling pipeline management system for genomics 
 Genome::Model::Tools   a tree of >1000 tools and tool wrappers for genomics
 Genome::*              a variety of sample tracking classes with an RDBMS back-end

Only the tools system is currently released.

See genome for a complete inventory of all tool packages, and for command-line access to those tools.
