TAMBIS: Transparent Access to Multiple Bioinformatics Information Sources
نویسندگان
چکیده
UNLABELLED TAMBIS (Transparent Access to Multiple Bioinformatics Information Sources) is an application that allows biologists to ask rich and complex questions over a range of bioinformatics resources. It is based on a model of the knowledge of the concepts and their relationships in molecular biology and bioinformatics. AVAILABILITY TAMBIS is available as an applet from http://img.cs.man.ac.uk/tambis SUPPLEMENTARY: A full manual, tutorial and videos can be found at http://img.cs.man.ac.uk/tambis.

Complex Query Formulation Over Diverse Information Sources Using an Ontology
Biologists increasingly need to ask complex questions over the large quantity of data and analysis tools that now exist. To do this, the individual sources need to be made to work together. The knowledge needed to accomplish this places a barrier between the bench biologist and the question he or she wishes to ask. The TAMBIS project (Transparent Access to Multiple Bioinformatics Information So...
متن کاملQuery Processing in the TAMBIS Bioinformatics Source Integration System
Conducting bioinformatic analyses involves biologists in expressing requests over a range of highly heterogeneous information sources and software tools. Such activities are laborious, and require detailed knowledge of the data structures and call interfaces of the different sources. The TAMBIS (Transparent Access to Multiple Bioinformatics Information Sources) project seeks to make the diversi...
متن کاملComplex Query Formulation Over Diverse Information Sources in TAMBIS
Biologists increasingly need to ask complex questions over the large number of data and analysis tools that are available on the Internet. To do this, the individual resources need to be made to work together. The knowledge needed to accomplish this, for example about the locations of the sources and their capabilities, places barriers between biologists and the questions they would like to ask...
متن کاملAn ontology for bioinformatics applications
MOTIVATION An ontology of biological terminology provides a model of biological concepts that can be used to form a semantic framework for many data storage, retrieval and analysis tasks. Such a semantic framework could be used to underpin a range of important bioinformatics tasks, such as the querying of heterogeneous bioinformatics sources or the systematic annotation of experimental results....
متن کاملBioQuery: A Bioinformatics Source Querying Environment
Formulating and executing queries over distributed, autonomous and heterogeneous resources is an important topic within e-science in general and bioinformatics in particular. Where resources have differing query capabilities and call interfaces, and heterogeneous representations of the semantics of a domain, formulating a single query that will work over multiple resources is difficult. In the ...
