Description:

Biology and genomics in the near future will play a major role in day to day activities related with health. Today biologists and doctors work together in order to decode and analyze large amount of data extracted from the DNA analysis of proteins. Advanced health applications will be needed in order to store, retrieve, process the large amount of data – being produced today by genomics and bioinformatics analysis – in order to extract useful results in a reasonable time frame. In this paper we present the results from our research regarding the use of grid technologies with health applications. We present the current status of standardization activities and working groups, which are currently involved with the specification of health applications and the standardization of needed components such us security, functionality, etc., which are being introduced by the use of grid technologies.
