👉 TB computing, or Ten Thousand Base pair computing, refers to the use of large-scale computing resources to analyze and process vast amounts of genomic data, specifically focusing on whole-genome sequencing (WGS) datasets. Each human genome consists of approximately 3 billion base pairs, and TB computing enables researchers to handle the immense data volumes generated by modern sequencing technologies. This approach involves leveraging distributed computing systems, cloud infrastructure, and specialized bioinformatics tools to perform complex analyses such as variant calling, genome assembly, and functional annotation. By processing these massive datasets efficiently, TB computing accelerates scientific discovery in genomics, facilitating personalized medicine, disease research, and evolutionary studies.
