This was a fine example of how to handle huge amounts of data locally. Bob has created software applications that collect data from long term monitoring of patients' brainwaves. Approximately 9 gigabytes of data are accumulated daily. The applications must discern what data should be saved and what can be overwritten. The system must be available at all times to collect the constant flow of data.
Physicians review the reports and add their comments.
The reports and salient data are placed on CDS each day. Other data is retained for a limited period of time. This presentation by Bob was the first by an ICSC member who volunteered to share his department's network activities with the group. It is hoped that other members will step forward to share their experiences or applications. The Windows 2000 operating system standards development will begin in November.
