Proposal for a new distributed database of macromolecular and subcellular structures from different areas of microscopy.

Abstract

In this work we address the problem of information access that arises in the field of three-dimensional structure determination, by means of image processing, from data obtained by various types of microscopy. A prototype of a distributed database containing three-dimensional structural information is presented. In this database the volume information is linked, if possible, to other sources of catalogued information such as sequence data, atomic coordinates, and bibliographies. The solution we propose is sufficiently general to be applicable to data in other fields of biomedical science.

Wireless connectivity for health and sports monitoring: a review.

This is a review of health and sports monitoring research that uses or could benefit from wireless connectivity. New, enabling wireless connectivity standards are evaluated for their suitability, and an assessment of current exploitation of these technologies is summarised. An example of the application is given, highlighting the capabilities of a network of wireless sensors. Issues of timing and power consumption in a battery-powered system are addressed to highlight the benefits networking can provide, and a suggestion of how monitoring different biometric signals might allow one to gain additional information about an athlete or patient is made.
