Free access to a signals archive and a signal processing/analysis
software library fosters online collaboration. This article aims to

community. After a capsule summary of its history and goals, we
discuss what PhysioNet offers to researchers, describe some of the
technology needed to support these functions, and conclude with
observations gleaned from PhysioNet's first year of service
