Revision as of 17:09, 9 October 2009

FSL is a comprehensive library of analysis tools for fMRI, MRI and DTI brain imaging data. It is being used by medical users of DutchGrid and packaged as part of the PoC distribution of VL-e.

Version 4.0 of FSL and later support cluster computing directly using the Sun Grid Engine (SGE).

This page will describe how to use FSL on the grid infrastructure.

Step 1: Using FSL with Torque BPS

Torque PBS is a widely used batch system (one could say an alternative to Sun Grid Engine). Enabling the use of FSL with Torque would be a first step to enable users unlock the power of local clusters.

Step 2: Using FSL with gqsub

The recently introduced gqsub would be a convenient way to use the sun grid engine interface while operating on the grid.
