CGViz via Java Web Start

CGViz - a highly configurable viewer for biomolecular data

Deployment via Java Web Start

 

This is the deployment site for CGViz using Java Web Start Technology. If you have installed Java Web Start (which normally happens automatically during installation of your java runtime) then you should be able to launch CGViz by clicking on any of the screenshots below. In the unlikely case that this fails, please refer to the Java Web Start FAQ which include download and installation instructions.
Note that you can peek into your local Java Web Start Cache by typing "javaws" on the console. Using "javaws" you can also create desktop icons and start menue shortcuts for browser-independent startup of the Java Web Start deployed CGViz. Furthermore, you may also start any Java Web Start applications directly from the console by typing "javaws ‹URL›"
(e.g. "javaws http://www-ab.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/webstart/CGViz/cgviz.jnlp").

Security: Using CGViz via Java Web Start the first time, you will be asked whether you trust the application to run locally. This trust is needed since CGViz needs privileges exceeding those of a java sandbox (e.g. for file loading/saving and printing). Although we have done our very best to deserve this trust, the usual disclaimer applies.

 

CGViz is a visualization and exploration engine for genomics data which is usually configured at start up to provide

some specific functionality. Here we provide some simple examples of  tools and visualizations based on CGViz, and the unconfigured viewer .

This is work in progress and currently everything is at an experimental stage.

 

Examples of tools based on CGViz:



OSLay
CGViz configured as a tool for comparing different assemblies of the same or related genomes

Examples of visualizations produced using CGViz:



comparison of two bacterial genome sequences


human-on-mouse synteny example

Visualization of matches between multiple genomes

 

The unconfigured viewer:
