The Longhorn Array Database (LAD): An Open-Source, MIAME compliant implementation of the Stanford Microarray Database (SMD)

BackgroundThe power of microarray analysis can be realized only if data is systematically archived and linked to biological annotations as well as analysis algorithms.DescriptionThe Longhorn Array Database (LAD) is a MIAME compliant microarray database that operates on PostgreSQL and Linux. It is a fully open source version of the Stanford Microarray Database (SMD), one of the largest microarray databases. LAD is available at http://www.longhornarraydatabase.orgConclusionsOur development of LAD provides a simple, free, open, reliable and proven solution for storage and analysis of two-color microarray data.
