Abstract

BioCompose is a next-generation data management system currently being developed at the University of California at Irvine. The system integrates two databases (a clinical patient database and a cellular-level neuropathological database) into a uniform framework with advanced data/knowledge management facilities and a simple, friendly user interface for all classes of users in the Internet environment. Using any standard Web browser, users can access data from any Internet-capable computer. This paper briefly discusses the design, architecture, and some implementation details of BioCompose
