Cross-border collaboration has increased significantly since 2006.

The paper discusses future directions for this collaborative process.

Abstract

In year 2006 Biolinux inter alia with the work of Tim Booth gives its rise and provide an operating system that was and is specialized in providing an environment for the needs of bioinformatics. Since than some years have been seen and the information about Biolinux has not only widespread within the bio-science community, also the Linux community at whole had a ear for it. This has caused a process called collaboration across borders and makes as the keywords say the different work groups cooperating together. In this paper we will have a look into the history of this collaboration, will show its growth until we reach the actual state and we will talk about the quo vadis of this process.
