Description: Bioinformatics : Databases and Systems, Hardcover by Letovsky, Stanley (EDT), ISBN 079238573X, ISBN-13 9780792385738, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK In tandem with the new field of genomics and the World Wide Web, bioinformatics emerged in the mid-1990s to track, analyze, and disseminate genome mapping data. These 23 articles sample the interdisciplinary field somewhat arbitrarily cleaved into sections on databases and software. Database papers representing recent systems such as Entrez and HOVERGEN focus on either the comparative molecular or single organism level. Integrating data from heterogenous sources is the challenge tackled by software contributors. The SRS system is described as occupying a novel middle ground between federation and warehousing, the main ways to achieve integration. Other papers confront compatibility issues between new software and existing systems, with COBRA considered a possible solution. Illustrated with flowcharts of biomedical data models and screen displays. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
