Planning and Preliminary Design of a World Virus Database (ICTVdb)

9505661 Blaine该奖项为世界病毒数据库的规划和初步设计提供支持。规划和初步设计将通过试验进行，采用现行标准和新制定的生物数据库互操作性准则，以支持世界病毒数据库（ICTVdB）的设计。国际病毒分类委员会（ICTV）是国际微生物研究联合会病毒学部门的常设委员会，负责建立、维护和传播关于病毒分类通用系统的信息。这样的系统可以用来解决系统学、比较生物学和生态学中的问题。将与其他主要生物数据库制作者密切合作，探讨数据库结构设计、数据收集和传播方法，以实施新兴数据库提供者联合会建议的概念。 ICTVdB的发展，因为它的跨学科的兴趣和基因序列数据的密切联系，可以提供一个模型的设计，测试和修改的软件工具，数据库的互操作性。

9505661 Blaine This award provides support for the planning and preliminary design of a world virus database. The planning and preliminary design will be pursued by experimentation with current standards and newly developed guidelines for biological database interoperability to support the design of a World Virus Database (ICTVdB). The International Committee on the Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), a standing committee of the Virology division of the International Union of Microbiological Studies, is charged with establishing, maintaining and disseminating information on a universal system for virus taxonomy. Such a system can used to address questions in systematics, comparative biology and ecology. Database structural design, data collection, and dissemination methods will be explored in close collaboration with other major biological database producers to implement concepts recommended by an emerging federation of database providers. Development of the ICTVdB, because of its interdisciplinary interest and close links to genetic sequence data, can provide a model for the design, testing and modification of software tools for database interoperability.
