Nowadays Proteomics becomes more and more popular in life science. Protein quantification, especially based on mass spectrometry (short for MS) method, is perceived as an essential part of research on proteomics. There have been some algorithms and software for protein quantification based on MS. But they have difficulties on portability, applicability and longtime running. To solve these problems, we developed a new domestic parallel software package called QuantWiz for high performance Liquid Chromatography (short for LC)-MS-based label-free protein quantification. In this paper, we described the framework design and prototype development of this high performance software package firstly. Also, user interface developed for the visualization of QuantWiz is introduced. Finally, we showed implementation of the parallelization version and performance of some experiments on this software package.
