Abstract

Cancer prevention is very important to limit the incidence and mortality due to tumor diffusion. Working places receive people for most of their living time, so prevention in these places is of extreme importance. This paper present a web based system to collect and distribute reliable and updated information on cancer prevention in working places. These information is present in many web sites and, in some cases, in quite hidden pages, so it is important to set up a tool to search in a clear and fast way independently on the language in which information is recorded.
