Computer Representation and Reduction of Chromosome Mapping Data

该奖项将补充正在进行的项目的编程工作。该项目旨在开发一种模式，用于计算机表示和减少染色体制图项目中常见的数据，包括遗传连锁、限制性片段和有序克隆技术。目标包括使这种模式成为标准数据交换格式的基础。研究人员之间的数据交换将得到便利，向中央机构提交简化后的数据将更加容易。审稿人认为这是一项重要的工作，将对该领域做出有价值的贡献。他们建议批准。

This award will supplement the programing effort of an ongoing project. The project is to develop a schema for computer representation and reduction of data commonly involved in chromosome mapping projects including genetic linkage, restriction fragment, and ordered clone techniques. The objectives include making such a schema the basis of a standard data exchange format. The exchange of data between researchers would be facilitated and the submission of reduced data to central institutions would be easier. The reviewers believe this to be important work and will make a valuable contribution to the field. They are recommending approval.
