Abstract

The paper describes XML-based information structures (meta-models) and software services both developed to search, collect and aggregate data of drug clinical usage and represent the information to users in a comprehensible way. These tools provide biomedical professionals with more complete, detailed and actual information on possible adverse events related to drug administration and thus support the evidence-based pharmacology and more personalized healthcare. Grid provides implementation of these tools on base of multi-agent system technology enabling information processing in loosely coupled data space.
