This paper describes an advanced Grid architecture efficient for homology searching in bioinformatics. An integrated architecture of the computing-grid and data-grid through P2P communication attains efficient job processing. Field trials, in which broadband users and bioinformatics researchers participated to find new DNAs, show its effectiveness in reducing processing time.
