The new PhysioNet website is available at: https://physionet.org. We welcome your feedback.
Jose Garcia Moros and Salvador Olmos have contributed their reimplementations of a useful subset of the WFDB library, available here. They can be used to read and write WFDB annotation files and format 212 signal files using Matlab or Octave. The authors have also provided compiled versions of these files for use with Matlab under Linux, Solaris, and MS-Windows.
Several other software packages for reading and writing PhysioBank and compatible files are also available; look here for a list.
