Application Overview of Virtual Slide System

This diagram shows an application overview of virtual slide system. Service data and pathology image data are stored in the backend servers. Core components in the middle implement core functions of the system, including cooperation and interaction with backend servers, offering application interfaces for upper software and external services. Core components can be embedded into desktop software products of virtual slide system to build up C/S application. And these components can be deployed in the web server to provide websites or web services via grid or cloud computing platform. Users use the system by accessing the sites, while other developers can construct 3rd party application on the system API in the secondary development.

The diagram is composed by Joshua in Visio 2007.
