A CORBA server for the Radiation Hybrid Database
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modern biology depends on a wide range of software interacting with a large number of data sources, varying both in size, complexity and structure. The range of important databases in molecular biology and genetics makes it crucial to overcome the problems which this multiplicity presents. At EMBL-EBI we have started to use CORBA technology to support interoperability between a variety of databases, as well as to facilitate the integration of tools that access these databases. Within the Radiation Hybrid DataBase project we are confronted daily with the interoperation and linking issues. In this paper we present a CORBA infrastructure implemented to access the Radiation Hybrid DataBase.

The HuGeMap database stores the major genetic and physical maps of the human genome. It is also interconnected with the gene radiation hybrid mapping database RHdb. HuGeMap is accessible through a Web server for interactive browsing at URL http://www.infobiogen. fr/services/Hugemap , as well as through a CORBA server for effective programming. HuGeMap is intended as an attempt to build open, in...
متن کاملRHdb: the Radiation Hybrid database
Since July 1995, the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) has maintained RHdb (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/RHdb ), a public database for radiation hybrid data. Radiation hybrid mapping is an important technique for determining high resolution maps. RHdb is also served by CORBA servers. The EBI is an Outstation of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL).

Data collections are distributed at many different sites and stored in numerous different database management systems. The industry standard CORBA can help to alleviate the technical problems of distribution and diverging data formats. In a CORBA environment, data structures can be represented using the Interface Definition Language IDL. Manually coding a server, which implements the IDL throug...
متن کاملMaking CORBA Objects Persistent: the Object Database Adapter Approach
This paper discusses a realization of object persistence in a CORBA-based distributed system. In our approach, persistence of CORBA objects is accomplished by the integration of the ORB with an ODBMS. This approach is not limited to pure object-oriented database systems, as the ODBMS may be a combination of a relational DBMS and an object-relational mapper. The design and implementation of an O...
