Abstract:
We propose a software layer called GUEDOS-DB upon Object-Relational Database Management
System ORDMS. In this work we apply it in Molecular Biology, more precisely Organelle complete
genome. We aim to offer biologists the possibility to access in a unified way information spread
among heterogeneous genome databanks. In this paper, the goal is firstly, to provide a visual
schema graph through a number of illustrative examples. The adopted, human-computer
interaction technique in this visual designing and querying makes very easy for biologists to
formulate database queries compared with linear textual query representation.
