Title
Viewing Genome Data as Objects for Application Development.
Abstract
Genomics is becoming a data-intensive science, and an in- creasing number of laboratories are generating data which swamps storage in traditional paper-and-ink notebooks. Capturing the data flow requires large systems with multi- ple applications manipulating the same or similar data. Large systems often have conflicting requirements for data representation. Consistency across applications is a prime consideration, and appropriate data representation is an important issue in developing practical systems for molecu- lar biologists. Graphs are a natural representation for de- scribing genome data, while objects are good for modeling the behavior necessary for laboratory applications. We present a method for translating graph descriptions of ge- nome data into objects using objects as views on graphs. Graph representations describe genome concepts while ob- jects capture individual views for application development insuring consistency across genome applications.
