Gathering the data does not stop at Afghanistan's borders, however, since the military shares all of the biometrics it collects with the United States Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security through interconnected databases.
The day will come when interconnected databases will tell us exactly how each one of 6.5 billion genetically unique individuals emerged from 4 billion years of file-swapping on the DNA network.
The four-tier architecture offers significant advantages that include: good security and easy scalability of data, simple Internet integration, ability to be interconnected with other database servers, and hardware configuration flexibility.
In the future, such data could be interconnected with the database information on borehole exploration, slope instabilities, information on the area geology, etc., on the basis of which could be generated a complex preliminary assessment report whether a locality is suitable for foundation engineering purposes.
Moreover, different types of data are interconnected within the database, which is very convenient for further interpretations.
The genetic module presented in this article has been developed on the basis of interconnecting two databases, OpenFluDB (13) containing molecular data and EMPRES-i (14) containing epidemiological data.
Most clinical databases are also usually special-purpose, restricted in access or private, and frequently not interconnected with other databases or the Web.
MATCH [62] and pMATCH [63] are closely interconnected with the TRANSFAC database.
GO-2D has been implemented in JAVA and interconnected to a relational database system by using MS-Access 2000 for Windows version and SQLite for Linux version.
