Classification tree of software tools for array CGH data analysis. At the root level (black), tools are grouped into general genome browsers and software specific for array CGH data analysis (gray). At the next level, we distinguish web-based software (red) from desktop-based software (green). The lowest level divides free or open source software from commercial or closed-source applications or, in the case of web-based genome browsers, pre-web 2.0 from web 2.0 applications.
