An ontology driven architecture for derived representations of macromolecular structure.

摘要

Summary: An object metamodel based on a standard scientific ontology has been developed and used to generate a CORBA interface, an SQL schema and an XML representation for macromolecular structure (MMS) data. In addition to the interface and schema definitions, the metamodel was also used to generate the core elements of a CORBA reference server and a JDBC database loader. The Java source code which implements this metamodel, the CORBA server, database loader and XML converter along with detailed documentation and code examples are available as part of the OpenMMS toolkit.
