Between 2003 and 2005 work on UTOPIA was funded via [http://www.esnw.ac.uk/|The e-Science North West Centre] based at [[The University of Manchester]] by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, UK Department of Trade And Industry, and the European Molecular Biology Network. Since 2005 work continues under the EMBRACE European Network of Excellence [http://www.embracegrid.info|EMBRACE]
 
== History ==
UTOPIA's CINEMA (Colour INteractive Editor for Multiple Alignments), a tool for [[Sequence alignment|Sequence Alignment]], is the latest incarnation of software originally developed at The [[University of Leeds]] to aid the analysis of [[GPCR]]s. SOMAP[http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/7/2/233] , a Screen Orientated Multiple Alignment Procedure was developed in the late 1980s on the [[OpenVMS|VMS]] computer operating system, used a monochrome text-based [[VT100]] video terminal, and featured [[Context-Sensitive Help|context-sensitive help]] and [[Pull-down menu|pulldown menus]] some time before these were standard operating system features.
 
Line 14:
A [[C++]] version of CINEMA, called CINEMA5 was developed early on as part of the UTOPIA project, and was released as a stand-alone sequence alignment application. It has now been replaced by a version of the tool integrated with UTOPIA's other visualisation applications, and its name has reverted simply to CINEMA.
