Exon_73 Vector NTI Suite of Programs at MUSC.
 Vector NTI Advanced Suite

Vector NTI Advanced Suite has five main component modules and runs from 
a Dynamic License Server. There are at present 4 licenses for
VNTI and 18 "seats" administered by the MUSC DLS(late June 2001). This 
means that no more than 4 simultaneous users can run the component 
programs but that 18 "users" can try to run. VNTI's modules are:

-Vector NTI      vector and primer design, with superb graphics
-BioAnnotator    Sequence feature determination and plotting
-Contig_Express  Contig Assembly
-AlignX          Multiple Alignment with graphics.
-GenomeBench     MUSC does have a license for this module (Fall 2003).


The progams themselves are downloaded, installed on either a PC or a MAC
and run in DEMO mode. Full functionality can be purchased. Users
have the right to buy a seat or a complete license. The seat option
means they have a functional program but will compete for the licenses.
The seat option is economical. Purchasing full licenses is pricey.

We have a single license for ExpressionNTI for analysis of microarray data.
