Bioinformatics architecture. This figure shows a bioinformatics knowledge discovery application architecture. It presents the integrated development environment, GATE, which was used for the text mining process. GATE operated on a collection of scientific publications The process of Text Mining starts from a set of scientific publications in full text available on MedLine/Pubmed (in pdf format). Moreover, the figure shows the Layer Architecture consisting of GATE 4.0 Toolkit for Text Mining, our Middleware solution written by Java API, the grid infrastructure middleware, and, finally, a physical layer that consists of a Gnu/Linux Operating System.
