Abstract

This paper proposes High Voltage Electron Microscope (HVEM) DataGrid for biological data management. HVEM DataGrid allows researchers to share the results of their biological experiments using HVEM, so that they can analyze them together to perform good research. The proposed system is for people whose primary work is to access HVEM, to obtain experimental results for biological samples and to store or retrieve them on HVEM DataGrid. The architecture of the HVEM Grid[3] is designed to materialize all the necessary conditions in allowing the user 1) to control every part of HVEM in a fine-grained manner, 2) to check the HVEM and observe various states of the specimen, 3) to manipulate their high resolution 2-D and 3-D images, and 4) to handle the experimental data including storing and searching them. HVEM DataGrid, a subsystem of the HVEM Grid system, is to provide a simple web-based controlling method for remote biological data.
