ABSTRACT


BIG: a Grid Portal for Biomedical Data and Images

Giovanni Aloisio, Maria Cristina Barba, Euro Blasi, Massimo Cafaro, Sandro Fiore, Maria Mirto


Modern management of biomedical systems involves the use of many distributed resources, such as high performance computational resources to analyze biomedical data, mass storage systems to store them, medical instruments (microscopes, tomographs, etc.), advanced visualization and rendering tools. Grids offer the computational power, security and availability needed by such novel applications. This paper presents BIG (Biomedical Imaging Grid), a Web-based Grid portal for management of biomedical information (data and images) in a distributed environment. BIG is an interactive environment that deals with complex user’s requests, regarding the acquisition of biomedical data, the “processing” and “delivering” of biomedical images, using the power and security of Computational Grids.
