A Grid Service for Pattern Extraction from Mass Spectrometry Data

The paper presents a Grid Service allowing to detect and extract the longest common sub-spectrum among a set of mass spectrometry spectra data. The service is based on a novel pattern extraction algorithm named LCSS (Longest Common Spectra SubString) that adapts a very popular string matching technique based on Suffix Trees to spectra data. The core of the algorithm and a first performance evaluation of the related Grid Service are discussed.
