Hierarchic Database Management Systems and Networking for Systematic Biology

该项目将继续支持“系统生物学分级数据库管理系统和网络”的开发。特别是正在开发的新的数据模型和查询方法采用了“分类群视图”的概念，与常规分类群名称相比，它可以携带更多关于特定分类群和相关分类群的历史分类学信息。 此外，该项目还将涉及开发和测试各种工具，以便系统学界更多地利用这些数据库工具。

This project will continue to support the development of a "Hierarchic Database Management System and Networking for Systematic Biology." In particular new data models and query methods are being developed that employ the concept of "taxon views", which can carry more historical taxonomic information about a particular taxon and related taxa than is possible with regular taxon names. In addition, the project will involve development and testing of tools for greater access of these database tools by the systematics community.
