PNNL Rolls Out the MeDICi Integration Framework
May 2008
Computer scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have rolled out the MeDICi Integration Framework, a middleware platform (computer software that connects software components or applications) that makes it easy to integrate separate codes into complex applications that operate as a data analysis pipeline. "The framework is the first step in an evolving development project to create an underlying architecture for high performance analytical applications," said Ian Gorton, chief architect of the MeDICi project.

Review of Sensors for Radionuclide Monitoring Featured on Journal Cover
May 2008
To detect very small quantities of mobile radioactive elements in the groundwater at former nuclear weapons production sites, researchers have developed a new type of sensor. A comprehensive review of these sensors appears in the journal with the highest impact factor in the field of chemistry, Chemical Reviews. The sensor design is shown on the cover of the February 2008 issue. The article was written by Jay W. Grate and Matthew O'Hara from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Oleg Egorov, formerly of PNNL and now with IsoRay Medical, and Timothy DeVol from Clemson University.
