The Institute for Systems Biology seeks to develop revolutionary approaches to understanding of biological complexity and the analysis of biological systems. The ISB brings together a multidisciplinary group of scholars and scientists, from biologists, mathematicians and engineers, to computer scientists and physicists, in an interactive and collaborative environment.

The Adaptive Data Management Service Architecture defines a software architecture to support the goals of the ISB. Its main goals are:

• to support ad-hoc software development within the research enterprise
• to facilitate the integration of large heterogeneous data
• to enable collaboration between individual researchers and consortiums

Addama (a-duh-mah) provides a registry and a variety of services, built upon existing Open Source Software from trusted sources (e.g. Apache Software Foundation, Spring Framework, Google Code). Its design is based on the latest web and enterprise software principles.

NOTICE: We have migrated our source code repository from SVN to Mercurial (HG). The SVN repository is still available at http://addama.googlecode.com/svn along with tags and branches. New development will be managed through Mercurial.
