Scopira - a system for the analysis of biomedical data

With the proliferation of high-dimensional biomedical data, an acute need exists for a comprehensive, user-friendly software suite that allows investigators, in the health care disciplines, to classify their data through the detection of discriminating features. Scopira is a software initiative that attempts to achieve these goals in addition to providing intuitive visual computation, logic construction and parallel execution. We describe the architecture of Scopira, and various design and implementation issues that surfaced during development.
