(2013). BioAnnote: a software platform for annotating biomedical documents with application in medical learning environments. Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 111(1), 139-147.http://hdl.handle.net/11268/139Automatic term annotation from biomedical documents and external information linking are becoming a necessary prerequisite in modern computer-aided medical learning systems. In this context, this paper presents BioAnnote, a flexible and extensible open-source platform for automatically annotating biomedical resources. Apart from other valuable features, the software platform includes (i) a rich client enabling users to annotate multiple documents in a user friendly environment, (ii) an extensible and embeddable annotation meta-server allowing for the annotation of documents with local or remote vocabularies and (iii) a simple client/server protocol which facilitates the use of our meta-server from any other third-party application. In addition, BioAnnote implements a powerful scripting engine able to perform advanced batch annotations.engjournal article10.1016/j.cmpb.2013.03.007restricted accessServicio de referenciaSistema de información médica
