BioMOBY is an Open Source research project which aims to generate
an architecture for the discovery and distribution of biological
data through web services; data and services are decentralised,
but the availability of these resources, and the instructions for
interacting with them, are registered in a central location called
MOBY Central. BioMOBY adds to the web services paradigm, as exemplified
by Universal Data Discovery and Integration (UDDI), by having an
object-driven registry query system with object and service ontologies.
This allows users to traverse expansive and disparate data sets
where each possible next step is presented based on the data object
currently in-hand. Moreover, a path from the current data object
to a desired final data object could be automatically discovered
using the registry. Native BioMOBY objects are lightweight XML,
and make up both the query and the response of a simple object access
protocol (SOAP) transaction.
