    Database Information
  • One of the principle components required for this infrastructure would
         be the creation of the databases to track and store the various pieces
         of data generated. This includes the clone collection storage data, annotation
         data, workflow queues, microarray data, data repositories, sample submission information,
         and project/investigator information. We are developing a database schema to
         accommodate this diverse set of tasks. In particular, we will use the recommendations
         of the European Bioinformatics Institute and the Genetic Analysis Technology Consortium
         to guide us in the database schema for storing the microarray data. These groups also
         outline guidelines for exportation of the microarray data for publication and deposition
         into public databases. The software system we will use to build this relational database
         is SQL Server v7. This was chosen due to the low cost, scalability, and seamless integration
         into our programming platform, Visual Studio 6.0 Enterprise edition. Visual Studio is a
         suite of programs that include compilers for Visual Basic, Visual C++, Visual J++ (Java),
         and Visual Interdev (Active Server Pages) in one integrated package. Because of the
         integration between these products, development time for specific applications is
         dramatically decreased.

            Workflow
  • We are in the process of creating web based workflow schemes to manage the array workflow.
