TAMBIS: Transparent Access to Multiple Bioinformatics Information Sources
TL;DR: The TAMBIS project as discussed by the authors aims to provide transparent access to disparate biological databases and analysis tools, enabling users to utilize a wide range of resources with the minimum of effort, using a knowledge base of biological terminology (the biological Concept Model), a model of the underlying data sources (the Source Model) and a knowledge-driven user interface.

TL;DR: A domain ontology for molecular biology and bioinformatics is used in a retrieval-based information integration system for biologists, in which the ontology is used both to drive a visual query interface and as a global schema against which complex intersource queries are expressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
An ontology for bioinformatics applications.
TL;DR: The present paper describes the mechanisms used for delivering the TaO and discusses the ontology's design and organization, which are crucial for maintaining the coherence of a large collection of concepts and their relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI
A classification of tasks in bioinformatics
TL;DR: A survey of bioinformatics tasks currently undertaken by working biologists found the range of tasks that need to be supported and the components needed to do this in a general query system, and a set of evaluation criteria to assess both the biology and mechanical nature of general query systems.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Query processing in the TAMBIS bioinformatics source integration system
TL;DR: The TAMBIS (Transparent Access to Multiple Bioinformatics Information Sources) project as mentioned in this paper aims to make the diversity in data structures, call interfaces and locations of bioinformatic sources transparent to users.
