Overview
Bioinformatics brings computational methods to the analysis and proces sing of genomic data. Bioinformatics: Databases and Systems focuses on the issues of system building and data curation that dominate the day -to-day concerns of bioinformatics practitioners. Included are chapter s by many of today's leading bioinformatics practitioners, describing most of the current paradigms of system building and curation, includi ng both their strengths and weaknesses. Biological topics covered incl ude sequence databases, metabolic pathways, phenotypes, variety collec tions, gene expression atlases and neuroinformatics. Species range fro m bacteria to mammals to plants. Software systems and technologies cov ered include OPM, CORBA, SRS, KLEISLI, ACEDB, Web-based integration an d laboratory workflow.
