Computer Representation and Reduction of Chromosome Mapping Data

这一奖项将补充正在进行的项目的编程工作。该项目将开发一种用于计算机表示和简化染色体图谱项目中常见数据的模式，包括遗传连锁、限制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流将得到便利，向中央机构提交减少的数据将更容易。评审员认为这是一项重要的工作，将为该领域做出宝贵的贡献。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.
