Angulo Consulting, Encyclopedia of Life, and Field Museum Sign Deal
Angulo Consulting announced signing a one year contract with the Encyclopedia of Life and the Field Museum to develop new software to display large phylogenetic trees.
Skokie, IL, November 22, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Angulo Consulting (http://AnguloConsulting.com) announced signing a one year contract with the BioDiversity Center of the Encyclopedia of Life, based at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. Angulo Consulting will be developing new software to display large phylogenetic trees which will be displayed in the EOL pages.
David Angulo, president of Angulo Consulting, said that the contract seals a commitment of the two organizations to create applications on the Encyclopedia of Life web site that will make it easier for the general public to use and understand the relationships between different species. Their software will also show similarities and differences between evolutionary relationships and other data, such as geographical distributions and predator/prey statuses. Angulo said that the software will have a simple and intuitive interface so that Kindergarten through high school students will find it easy to use, yet will allow researchers to utilize it as well. For example, researchers might want to display DNA mutations parallel to the evolutionary relationships or they might want to modify the phylogenetic trees when new data becomes available.
Angulo Consulting and the Field Museum have a six year history of joint projects. The two organizations are co-founders of the Illinois Bio-Grid, a voluntary sharing of computational resources over the internet creating a virtual supercomputer. Angulo Consulting and the Field Museum also collaborated in the creation of BryoZone.org, a site for the world authoritative taxonomic data for Bryozoans, which are marine coral-like creatures.
