Abstract

Extracting useful information from a very large amount of biomedical texts is an important and difficult activity in biomedicine field. Data to be examined are generally unstructured and the available computational resources do not still provide adequate mechanisms for retrieving and analyse very large amount of contents. In this paper we present a rule-based system for Text Mining process applied in biomedical textual documents. This application requires a strongly use of the computational resource to perform intensive operations. We propose a grid computing approach to improve application performance.
