Allegro CL 6.2
Object-Oriented Programming System for BioInformatics

Today's BioTech industry needs dynamic web-enabled databases, powerful data analysis tools, and simple user interfaces to organize, manage, and interpret a vast body of complex information. From gene-expression profiles to molecular-cell behaviors, new tools are needed to create powerful, robust applications cost effectively and efficiently.

Take Control of Your Data

Strengthened by the unique Lisp-based capabilities, Allegro CL 6.2 is perfect for developing and deploying applications that manipulate voluminous and ever-changing data. Robust and flexible, Allegro CL can easily be used to develop complex query engines; connect to statistical libraries for data analysis, filtering and clustering; and automate image interpretation and visual data analysis.

Faster Development: Develop, evolve, and adapt applications while they're running. Great for comparative modeling, prediction of function form structure and identification of drug target/candidates.
Higher Productivity: Maximize developer time with truly programmable macros, automatic memory management and crash-proof bug trapping. Facilitates faster and more accurate code generation for complex biological scenarios.
Internet Accessibility: Allegro CL includes all of the tools needed to deploy applications, such as biomedical ASP's, over the Internet. Allows more meaningful search results across multiple bio-data platforms.

Control the Environment:

• (New) Interface to GTK+ 1.2/2.0
• Scalability and flexibility to build large, customized applications
• Application delivery as a DLL or stand alone image
• Make changes to class definitions and propagate changes to affected objects, as needed
• Easily implement complex data queries
• Built-in memory management and garbage collection

Control Interoperability:

• (New) Portable Object Adapter (POA) for Allegro ORBLink (a CORBA-Compliant ORB)
• Complete database access via Allegro ODBC (relational) and AllegroStore (Object-Oriented)
• Comprehensive Foreign Function Interface
• OLE/COM Suppor

Control the Internet:

• (New) XML-RPC: A Lisp implementation of the XML-RPC standard protocol
• Lisp RPC (Remote Procedure Call): Allow two individual Lisps to more easily communicate
• HTML/XML Parsers: Analyze web pages and connect to enterprise systems
• SSL Socket Streams for secure internet transactions
• Java Tool Suite: Packages applications as Java Beans and Servlets, directly call Java methods from Lisp methods and vice versa, and dynamically generate and compiles Java code to run in the Java Virtual Machine
• AllegroServe: A dynamic Lisp-based web server that interoperates with other web/application servers
