Abstract

A distributed telemedicine system is superior to isolated one. As a typical example, separating Web servers and data servers by CORBA technique can expand basic Web-based telemedicine system into a distributed system. As database would be fragmented on distributed sites, query optimization should be employed when possible. In addition, by estimating the resource utilization ratio, it is easy to achieve maximal profits for the distributed telemedicine system.
