Project lead Peter Dawyndt Peter Dawyndt got the degree of M.Sc. in Mathematics in 1997 and M.Sc. in Computer Science in 1999, both from the Ghent University in Belgium. During the period 1999-2006 he worked at the Laboratory of Microbiology of the Ghent University, helping to establish a symbiosis between mathematics, computer science and the life s… text/html 2010-11-29T21:25:31+02:00 Bert Verslyppe http://www.straininfo.net/docs/xmlformat?rev=1291062331&do=diff Introduction This document describes the XML format used for synchronizing BRCs with StrainInfo. The format is based on a subset of the Microbial Common Language (MCL) implemented using XML. This document contains a description of how to create files for this use-case of the MCL standard. The resulting files can be validated using an XML validator and the StrainInfo catalog schema. text/html 2010-05-06T16:53:51+02:00 Bert Verslyppe http://www.straininfo.net/docs/histrieditor?rev=1273157631&do=diff Requirements * Java 6 Runtime Environment. The Histri Editor is launched using Java Web Start, available on most computers. If you have problems launching the application, you probably do not have a recent Java environment.

After isolation and description, microbiological material is typically deposited in Biological Resource Centers (BRCs) to make it available for the scientific community. These BRCs distribute the material to individual researchers and other collections. Each transfer imposes a risk of contamination or human mistake, and thus of possibly confusing scientific results. In order to check the validity of strains, we need to reconstruct their exchange history ('Histri'). A histri cons… text/html 2010-04-12T09:45:02+02:00 Wim Gillis http://www.straininfo.net/docs/xmlimportpubkey?rev=1271058302&do=diff Public key authentication for passwordless SCP operation The SCP/SFTP protocol we use to allow file uploads has the option to authenticate passwordlessly using public/private keys. This enhances security, and is especially useful in automated recurrent synchronizations, as it removes the need for interactive password prompts. text/html 2010-04-12T09:35:04+02:00 Wim Gillis http://www.straininfo.net/docs/xmlimport?rev=1271057704&do=diff Please note that this procedure is currently still in beta testing phase. We hope no problems are encountered when exporting and uploading your catalog. You are welcome to give any feedback on the process. 1. Export your catalog Export your data according to the current StrainInfo XML schema for BRC catalogs.
