Introduction

This manual is intended for people who want to maintain the implemented blast server, and for anybody who wants to install a blast server on a distributed environment. The reader should know what the blast programs are and how they are called, should have an idea about the PVM library and the RPC mechanisms, and should have given a look to E. Masson's Diploma Thesis ``Portage d'une application de biologie moléculaire d'un environnement multiprocesseurs vers un réseau de stations'' [Masson94], and to the report of C. Javet and X. Défago ``Distribution de la charge pour BLAST'' [Jav Def 94]. The reader might also want to look at the page dedicated to this project on the WWW, at http://diwww.epfl.ch/~blastdat.
