ABSTRACT:
A system and method for managing informatics in a specialty field, such as medicine, biology, and so on. A local workstation is connected to a server over a network. A user runs a browser application on the local workstation. A plurality of remote data repositories are accessible to the server. The informatics management system includes a gateway program running on the server. The gateway program receives a query request in a first format from the user over the network. The gateway program includes a query translator routine that translates the query request from the first format to a plurality of different formats. The translated query requests are sent to the remote data repositories and results are received therefrom. The gateway program includes a results translator routine that translates the results received from the remote data repositories into results in the first format and sends the results in the first format to the user's workstation. In a further aspect of the system, query results can be used as input data to analysis tools and programs. The gateway program includes a translator routine that translates the query results into input data for a remote tool or analysis program. A driver routine launches the remote analysis program. The gateway program includes a translator routine that translates the computed results from the remote analysis program into results in the first format and sends the results in the first format to the user's workstation. In one embodiment, the network is the Internet and the first format is HTML.
