IBM announced that it has made available an advanced software
technology that can help predict the transmission of diseases across
countries and around the globe to the open source community. The tool
will aid scientists and public health officials in understanding and
planning more efficient responses to health crises, ultimately
providing new tools for protecting population health.

The software, known as Spatiotemporal Epidemiological Modeler (STEM),
is now available for use through the Eclipse Open Healthcare Framework
Project (OHF), hosted at the Eclipse Foundation, the non-profit
foundation that guides the Eclipse open source community.
