ALBA: a Rapid Prototyping Framework for Computer Aided MedicineMS58

The Agile Library for Biomedical Application is an open-source rapid development framework (in C++) for the Computer Aided Medicine. ALBA reduces the effort to obtain a fully working and usable application: lots of features are included and in most cases the programmer can simply select the right components from the ALMA toolbox. It contains also installer scripts; build server configuration and the necessary components for applications-building. Three exemplar applications based on ALBA will be shown.
