If you are on the explicit mailing list and do not want to be, please send email to mieg@kaa.crbm.cnrs-mop.fr, rd@sanger.ac.uk. ACEDB code release 4_5 ====================== A new version of acedb is available at ncbi and the usual mirror sites Ace 4_5 is fully compatible with ace.4_3, if you download this code, you do not need to reconstruct your database. New features ============ The overall quality of the code has been improved, the system is faster and uses much less memory when exporting large relational tables. The non graphic code has been extensivelly checked and should be very reliable. A number of graphics have changed, in particular the help system, which now uses an http browser and the key-set display, which now offers many submenus. There is a new Forest display, available from the more-info button of the keyset window, which offers a custom view of sets of objects, and a new Peptide display for proteins. Jo Dicks' comparative map displays have been added. Most other displays have been fixed and/or improved. The sequence display now offers asynchronous access to blast, biomotif and oligo-search, via external calls using scripts in wscripts. The genefinder options now have controllable parameters. The blixem display has many additions. The map display has several new columns. The printer and file chooser are more flexible and easier to control. And so on. Data curators should note the new file wspec/layout.wrm which now controls wysiwyg the class layout of the main window. Unix Binaries ============= The distributed code has a subrelease letter, presently 4_5d/e, which may continue to change a little while we build for more platforms, but is irrelevant otherwise. The code itself is now fixed. Binaries are available for SUN, SOLARIS, Silicon, DEC, Linux; more binaries will appear soon for IBM and HP, and since the source code is available, you may also recompile for your platform if it is not on this list. Windows version =============== For the fist time, we include a binary for windows-95 and windows-NT intel machines. This code was prepared by Richard M. Bruskiewich, from Vancouver from the same souce code. Please let us know of any problems and also if you are happy with it. It seemed to be very fast on pentium-200 machines. To install winace, read the document WinAce.*.txt Mac version =========== Unfortunately, we are not able to port ace.4_5 for the mac. So the last Mac version remains ace.4_1. We hope that Cyrus Hammon, who built the current macace release will be able to recompile 4_5 for the mac, or give us his latest source code, but there is no guarantee. If you are a mac programmer and would like to help, please let us know. Server/Client ============= Ace.4_5 server client capability have been substentially improved. To gain space, and since any person installing a server is most probably able to recompile, the servercode is not part of the binaries but must be recompiled with the command: make aceserver gifaceserver other However, we do distribute the SOLARIS server, because the make command on solaris produces an aceserver which does not work in daemon mode. (help welcome if you are a solaris/rpc expert) There is now a graphic client, xaceclient, with a start-up script called xcl which will act exactly like xace, but getting its data transparently form a remote server. The gifaceserver can export postscript or gif files equivalent to the standard graphic xace. It will be used by the forthcoming revised webace release. The jade program can export the data to the Web using the recent java language. Instructions for obtaining updates/the whole thing ================================================== All the files are available in the following public access accounts (anonymous ftp sites) accessible over internet: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (130.14.25.1) in the USA, in repository/acedb ftp.sanger.ac.uk in England, in pub/acedb lirmm.lirmm.fr (193.49.104.10) in France, in directory genome/acedb In each case, log in as user "anonymous" and give a user identifier as password. Remember to transfer the files in BINARY mode by typing the word "binary" at the start of your ftp session. Many thanks to NCBI for letting us share in their excellent resource. Example: ftp ncbi.nlm.nih.gov login: anonymous password: your user id or email address cd repository/acedb # change to relevant directoy binary # IMPORTANT dir # display files in this directory get README get NOTES get INSTALL cd ace4 # change to ace4 directory get bin.xxx.4_5d.tar.Z # get correct precompiled code get source.4_5d.tar.Z # and/or get the source code quit -------------------------------- If you want the C.elegans data, get any update.4-n.tar.Z that you do not have already from the directory ../celegans. Always get a copy of the INSTALL script. Move it and the .tar.Z files into the home directory in which you are installing ACEDB. Type "chmod 755 INSTALL ; INSTALL". Start acedb (normally by typing "acedb"), click "Yes" to accept initialising the database if starting from scratch. If you imported the update files, choose "Add Update File" from the menu (right button), and press "All updates" with the left mouse button. If you have a problem making the program work, look at the section on problems in NOTES, and if that fails to help, let us know. ****************************************************************** Comments about the program, or the installation procedure, should be sent to one of us: Richard Durbin (rd@sanger.ac.uk) Jean Thierry-Mieg (mieg@kaa.cnrs-mop.fr) -------------------- end of message -------------------- From owner-acedb@net.bio.net Wed Sep 03 23:00:00 1997 Path: biosci!fcs280s.ncifcrf.gov!cpk-news-feed4.bbnplanet.com!cpk-news-feed1.bbnplanet.com!cpk-news-hub1.bbnplanet.com!news.bbnplanet.com!dispatch.news.demon.net!demon!delos.dra.hmg.gb!server1.netnews.ja.net!news.nott.ac.uk!usenet From: mary anderson Newsgroups: bionet.software.acedb,bionet.plants Subject: Opportunity for computational biologist, Uni.

If you are on the explicit mailing list and do not want to be, please send email to rd@sanger.ac.uk. New ACEDB data release WG3.4-3 and WS3.4-18 and 19 for C. elegans ================================================================= IMPORTANT ========= THE NEW DATA RELEASE CAN ONLY BE INSTALLED WITH NEW CODE VERSION 4_5, WHICH HAS JUST BEEN RELEASED. With this release we are still using the series of updates called WS3 (and correspondingly WG3 for the version without sequences). If you have not changed from WS2 to WS3, please get and read the instructions in letter.may97 from the ftp directories. The software has changed. You should be using these updates in conjunction with release 4_5 of the acedb software. Instructions for obtaining this are given below. You will see changes in the main window (classes displayed) and quite radical changes in the Keyset window. Several other display windows have a new look, for example DNA analysis and bibliography. The new layout on the main window will not be fully realised until you have updated, saved, exited and re-opened ACeDB. Reminder: there are now two versions of the C.elegans database. The WS3 update series contains everything, whereas the WG3 update series contains all data except sequences and directly related material (proteins, motifs etc.), for those with limited resources. The additions since the last release are: for both types of update - a physical map update (mid July) - accumulated genetic data corrections - a re-build of the genetic maps after adding new map-data (submitted by end of april.) - from CGC : bibliography, wbg subscribers and strains (July) - from Ian Hope's lab.: more expression patterns and many more images and for just the complete database including sequences (WS3.4-18 to 19) Data fom St Louis and Sanger Sequence databases taken in mid-July: - There are now 2303 (2237 before) cosmids totalling 68938124 (66969575 before) bases. The total database sizes after adding these updates are around 560MB for the WS3 database and around 60MB for the WG3 database. We apologise for the delay between finalising the data and distribution for these updates, caused by delays in releasing the new code version. THE CELEGANS DIRECTORY ====================== This contains 3 additional directories in response to a request from worm users: wscripts/, wspec.WS3.4-19/ and pictures/ . The wscripts directory has the executable script for viewing the expression images and the pictures directory contains ALL images submitted to date. The wspec.WS3.4-19/ directory has many changes which can only be used with version 4-5 code. All three have been bundled into the current update files and will come automatically therefore to people who have taken copies of updates. Instructions for obtaining updates/the whole thing ================================================== All the files are available in the following public access accounts (anonymous ftp sites) accessible over internet: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (130.14.20.1) in the USA, in repository/acedb ftp.sanger.ac.uk (193.60.84.11) in England, in pub/acedb lirmm.lirmm.fr (193.49.104.10) in France, in directory genome/acedb In each case, log in as user "anonymous" and give a user identifier as password. Remember to transfer the files in BINARY mode by typing the word "binary" at the start of your ftp session. Many thanks to NCBI for letting us share in their excellent resource.

The San Fransisco Chronicle reported, "Price War Creates Consumer Bargains in Term Life Insurance," and the New York Times, "Premiums have fallen to record lows." You may not be aware that your life insurance company could now be charging new policyholders less than you are now paying for the same coverage. Your traditional life insurance agent has access to a small number of life insurance companies. Through the internet, you can compare rates to every other policy available. Our free price comparison service gives you access to over 550 term policies from over 175 life insurance companies.

Subsequent releases (after this date, i.e. August 15th and beyond) do not cause the installation problem described in this advisory. NOTE: The NCBI mirror of the Sanger ftp copy of winace97 was somewhat delayed in being updated. The newer release had a README.WINDOWS file but is, unfortunately, the archive name was not originally timestamped (except through the filing system, with a later Sept 3, 1997 file date). This latter problem is now resolved: the re-release is named "winace97_Aug15.zip". The release (packaged as a .zip archive) is in a new "InstallShield" based format which gives Windows users their familiar "setup.exe" functionality seen with most commercial installations of programs. Unfortunately, this initial installation was inadvertently designed to generously provide winace users with (NT default) copies of certain MS Windows dynamic linked libraries (DLL's): wsock32.dll ws2_32.dll ws2help.dll which are now known to be standard upon (most) Windows systems. Since the InstallShield utility (at least, the "Visual C/C++ 4.2 Express" version used to generate the winace archive) does not complain about overwriting existing files, users with non-default versions of the Windows DLL's would see newer, non-default versions of the files quietly overwritten. The overwriting of the ws2*.dll did not appear to be the problem. The biggest culprit is wsock32.dll (found under the windows\system (for Windows '95) or winnt\system32 (for NT) subdirectory) for which some users have sophisticated enhanced versions for increased internet (e.g. netscape, ping, ftp, etc.) service functionality. IF YOU HAVE BEEN ENCOUNTERING INTERNET PROBLEMS SINCE INSTALLING WINACE, THIS IS THE LIKELY (AND TO MY KNOWLEDGE, ONLY) CULPRIT. First, if you are among this small (but important) group of winace pioneers (with the arrows in your back), I offer my sincerest apologies for the anguish caused by this installation bug. Second, I offer the following bug fix advisory: 1. You DON'T need to download the August 15th version of Winace because all it does is fix the installation so that the above bug does not occur (wsock32.dll is not overwritten). 2a. If you have a copy of YOUR custom wsock32.dll (i.e. you backed up windows\system (for Windows '95) or winnt\system32 after installing your increased internet functionality but before installing winace) then just restore that copy. OR 2b. If you don't have a backup of wsock32.dll, then try reinstalling your particular internet software (e.g. netscape, ping, ftp, etc.). If none of the above works, please contact me (at rbrusk@octogene.medgen.ubc.ca) with a description of your particular operating configuration (OS, network items installed, etc.) so we can work together to fix the problem. Once again, my sincerest apologies for this unexpected installation problem. Richard M.

In the current release all the hits appear to be clubbed in one column. Is there any parameter that I can set during installation or anything else I can do to get the three frame to show in three columns?

After visiting the Guide, If you have any suggestion for making the Guide better please let us know. (webmaster@scienceguide.com) The Science Guide consists of a number of different sections designed to help the scientist and physician find information on the internet and to sponsor communication between those interested in science: NEWS SECTION Every day the Science Guide compiles medical and research news from national news sources around the net. Most of the news articles are concerned with medicine, bioscience, and physics, but all other sciences from agriculture to zoology are commonly included. News sources currently listed include: CNN, EurekAlert, HMS Beagle, MSNBC Sci-Tech, Science Magazine¹s ScienceNow, CBS Space News, USA Today, The Albuquerque Journal, Scientific American Web Weekly, The Why Files, Discover Magazine, Scientific American, Smithsonian Magazine, and the Technology Review. The news pages also list links to news sources not compiled within the News site. We are currently working on adding a number of other sources to the site to make it even more useful. To make getting science news even easier, we send out a DAILY NEWS EMAILER listing the articles which have been compiled on our site. Anyone can subscribe to the Emailer by sending an email to news@scienceguide.com with the message ³Subscribe² DIRECTORY OF USENET NEWS GROUPS and DISCUSSION LISTS The Directory of Usenet and Discussion Groups is compiled quarterly from different sources around the net to provide the scientist and those interested in science easy access to these invaluable sources of discourse and information. We are currently working on finding the proper subscription method for each of the discussion lists. This is taking a bit longer that we thought so please pardon our dust. The Usenet portions of this section are complete. ON-LINE JOURNAL HYPERLINK SECTION The Journals Section contains links to peer reviewed scientific journals on the Internet. Each listing clearly indicates whether the journal provides only the table of contents, TOC with abstracts, or the full text of the journal EMPLOYMENT SECTION The Jobs and Positions Section contains hyperlinks to the best Scientific Employment Databases and Classifieds on the net. GRANTS and FUNDING SECTION The funding section contains links to the best funding and grant databases on the Internet, making it very easy for scientists to quickly find funding opportunities. The featured site of the section is ³The Community of Science,² a Johns Hopkins service designed to help scientists find and continue funding.

The original message is copied directly below. Appended after it is a copy of my proposed new group charter, which is minimally different from the current one. If you have any suggestions for change in the text or in the policy, please let me or the group know within the next week or so. Thanks, Serge Taylor Biosci Administrator Stanford University ============== original message ============================== As part of our effort to eliminate "spam" messages which are offensive and distracting to the scientific discussions which the Biosci newsgroups are designed to facilitate, we are creating a new type of moderated newsgroup -- "Moderated (only to filter out spam)". Our rationalie is that only what usenet recognizes as "moderated" newsgroups can filter mail postings, yet it has proven difficult to find volunteer moderators from each newsgroup. Our intention is to use a combination of human and software filters to eliminate the most egregious examples of spam. Since we value diversity of opinion in scientific communications, and recognize that our efforts are unavoidably subject to both Type I and Type II errors, we aim to err on the side of allowing arguably scientifically relevant communications to be posted. We intend to convert all the unmoderated bionet newsgroups to the new status as soon as possible, and forsee two situations: (1) Where a charter exists for an established but unmoderated group, we will take the current charter and add the following language (taken >From the policy statement which we send to anyone who wishes to start a new newsgroup or convert an unmoderated to moderated newsgroup, and suitably customized to the newsgroup where necessary) on "Moderation Policy": "Moderation Policy: Mass-posted commercial messages, chain letters, and similar postings not germane to the stated purpose of the charter will be deleted without comment. Inappropriate messages posted in good faith will be returned to the sender where feasible. Messages not strictly within the charter but likely to be of interest to many subscribers will be accepted. Use of the newsgroup for commercial purposes is prohibited." The proposed new charter will be posted to the newsgroup for a short comment period. (2) Where a charter does not exist for an established unmoderated group, we will solicit the newsgroup's discussion leader(s), where listed, to draft a non-controversial charter and submit it to the newsgroup for a short comment period. If at any time a moderated-for-spam newsgroup wishes to convert to a regular "moderated" group, with its own moderator, we shall be happy to treat such a request just as we do the request to change from unmoderated to moderated status. Finally, if a currently moderated group wishes to take advantage of the spam filtering software to ease the administrative burden on the moderator, we will discuss the logistics and policy guidelines with the group's moderator. (We will notify moderators when we are ready to offer this facility; we are not currently ready.) We hope that these new arrangements will protect the integrity of our newsgroups and allow us to focus on other ways of improving Biosci. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we deal with the spam problem. Serge Taylor Biosci Administrator Stanford University Libraries ========== proposed modified charter ==================== Charter for ACEDB-SOFT/bionet.software.acedb Moderation Status: Moderated for spam E-mail addresses: acedb@net.bio.net acedb@daresbury.ac.uk Discussion leader: Mike Cherry Director of Computing Department of Molecular Biology Massachusetts General Hospital Boston, MA 02114 Voice: 617-726-5955 FAX: 617-726-6893 Internet: cherry@frodo.mgh.harvard.edu Charter ACEDB-SOFT/bionet.software.acedb: Discussions by users and developers of genome databases using the ACEDB software. This group includes discussions ranging from construction of new databases using the ACEDB software, curation of genetic and physical map information into Ace format, to questions about the use of any of the species specific databases utilizing the ACEDB software. As part of the C. elegans genome effort Jean Thierry-Mieg and Richard Durbin developed a generalized software solution for genome databases. ACEDB is the name of the software used for the organization, presentation and storage of genome information. It is also the name of the first database to use this software, the the C. elegans genome database. ACEDB includes an X-windows user interface and an object-like database engine developed specifically for storage of biological information. Many groups have begun using ACEDB to create a variety of genome databases. As of April 1993 three of these groups have released their databases to the general public and many others are well along in their development. The number of groups utilizing the ACEDB software to organize, manipulate and disseminate genome information is increasing. An informal community of ACEDB developers has formed to share knowledge and resources. This group allows the community of developers and users to continue sharing and growing. The archives of the group also provide a useful resource to both developers and users. Moderation policy: (added 25 September 1997) This newsgroup is moderated by automatic spam filtering software and by Biosci personnel to implement the following policy: Mass-posted commercial messages, chain letters, and similar postings not germane to the stated purpose of the charter will be deleted without comment. Inappropriate messages posted in good faith will be returned to the sender where feasible. Messages not strictly within the charter but likely to be of interest to many subscribers will be accepted. Use of the newsgroup for commercial purposes is prohibited.

Date: 27 Sep 1997 11:31:51 GMT Organization: ATTRACT MORE WOMEN Lines: 153 Message-ID: <60iqr7$eot$1844@news.mco.bellsouth.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: d00058.mco.bellsouth.net HOW TO ATTRACT GIRLS INSTANTLY....Secrets to instant sex appeal PURE INSTINCT PHEROMONE ATTRACTANT FOR MEN WILL GIVE YOU AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE WITH WOMEN GUARANTEED (or your money back)! Everyone knows that some men(a tiny minority) are able to instantly attract women. It used to be known as "animal magnetism". Scientists now say this natural attraction is due to pheromones - body smells that are not consciously detected, but that effect the behavior of others towards the person giving off these chemical signals. It's natures way of attracting the opposite sex. Scientists have now isolated and synthesized two natural attractants- androstenol and androstenone pheromone. Carefully controlled experiments show they work and have been widely reported on television and in both the American and British l press. Androstenone pheromone has been successfully tested on BBC TV's "TOMORROWS WORLD" and by Desmond Morris (Author of "The Naked Ape" and "Manwatching" and renowned human behaviorist) on BBC TV's "Friday Night... Saturday Morning." It also was tested on Discovery and was shown to cause positive sexaul attraction for women New improved formula Pure Instinct from ICT Research Technology contains both ANDROSTENOL and ANDROSTENONE pheromone and produces an undetectable scent that subconsciously attracts women to the wearer. Pure Instinct is the world's number one selling and the most concentrated (5 - 7 x normal active strength) pheromone spray for men - don't be misled by cheaper (or more expensive) imitations. We have spent three years researching if pheromones work and researching the quality of pheromones products After three years of sound studing and testing we feel the miracle of Pheromones is real We have also found most pheromone products ( they will remain nameless) are either well over priced for what you get or do not have enough pheromone (Androstenone)in them to be effective. It is not Androstenone that is not effective to attract women, There is just never enough in the products sold to do the job Each one of the bottles of Pure Instinct Contains 1 MG of androstenone. Many other porducts we have tested have less then 1/10th of that. This is why with these other products you have to use half the bottle at one time just to get a result. The results are there. If there is androstenone in the product the results WILL BE THERE but if there is not enough androstenone you can go through one bottle in 2 days. Pure Instinct is so strong just a few applications will get you the results half a bottle of the other pheromonee products will get you.. This is why our pheromone product is more expensive then some but cheaper then most. 1 mg of Androstenone buy it self cost around $11.00 on the open chemical market plus there is packaging etc. So we feel $29.95 is a hell of a price for a product YOU KNOW will work because it has the right amount of Pheromone to do the job without having to use up the whole bottle in one day The Point: A good product with enough Androstenone Pheromone worn by a man will ATTRACT A WOMEN INSTANTLY WHAT THE PRESS SAY: * Lowell Ponte, a former consultant on exotic weapons and a Readers Digest science writer, said in an interview that "use of the recently discovered chemical Androstenone should be banned. Congress should pass a law making it a crime to use this chemical to influence voters by making politicians appear more lovable. - The San Francisco Chronicle - * "The stuff attracts women like you wouldn't believe" - Colorado Telegraph * "And now this pheromone has been marketed, we've tested it - and good grief it works" - Koave * "pheromones influence human behavior in a subtle way. Women are attracted to the smell" - The Daily Telegraph * "Pure Instinct is likely to produce a state of sexual excitement or arousal" - Men Only (Vol. #44 No. 4) Much of our sales of Pure Instinct are reorders from existing users, reports confirm success. "Pure Instinct really does seem to work! The most dramatic instances have occurred when wearing it at discos. Girls just drift towards me and start flirting." -DT Cardiff "I Knew Pure Instinct wasn't a gimmick when one of the girls at work, quite out of character, started to seduce me when we were alone in the office." -SD Nottingham Pure Instinct comes in a discreet 30ml pocket container with full instructions, Ideal for any man who wants to join that lucky few who have more than their fair share of sex appeal. 30 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE If you are not 100% delighted with the results from using Pure Instinct simply return remainder within 30 days for a full refund- No questions asked!

Questions marked with '+' are new, those with '!' have substantially changed answers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q0: What is ACEDB? A0: ACEDB is an acronym for A Caenorhabditis elegans Database. It can refer to a database and data concerning the nematode C. elegans, or to the database software alone. This document is concerned primarily with the latter meaning. ACEDB is being adapted by many groups to organize molecular biology data about the genomes of diverse species. ACEDB allows for automatic cross-referencing of items during loading and allows for hypertextual navigation of the links using a graphical user interface and mouse. Certain special purpose graphical displays have been integrated into the software. These reflect the needs of molecular biologists in constructing genetic and physical maps of genomes. ACEDB was written and developed by Richard Durbin (MRC LMB Cambridge, England) and Jean Thierry-Mieg (CNRS, Montpellier, France), beginning in 1989. It is written in the C programming language and uses the X11 windowing system to provide a platform independent graphical user interface. The source code is publicly available. Durbin & Thierry-Mieg continue to develop the system, with contributions from other groups. A description by Durbin & Thierry-Mieg: ACEDB does not use an underlying relational database schema, but a system we wrote ourselves in which data are stored in objects that belong in classes. This is nevertheless a general database management system using caches, session control, and a powerful query language. Typical objects are clones, genes, alleles, papers, sequences, etc. Each object is stored as a tree, following a hierarchical structure for the class (called the "model"). Maps are derived from data stored in tree objects, but precomputed and stored as tables for efficiency. The system of models allows flexibility and efficiency of storage --missing data are not stored. A major advantage is that the models can be extended and refined without invalidating an existing database. Comments can be added to any node of an object. Return to List of Questions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q1: What is the current version of the ACEDB software? A1: The current Unix version is ace.4_5d/e, released 28 August 1997. Enhancements added during the ACE97 Workshop will be incorporated in the next release. The very latest development version is always available at ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/acedb_src/. This is unsupported and not to be redistributed. The Windows 95/NT version 4.5.2, 15 August 1997, corresponds to Unix test.ace.4_5c. For current information see the WinAce Web page at http://mendel.medgen.ubc.ca/rbrusk/winace.html. A Macintosh version is available as version 4.1b1, August 1995. Return to List of Questions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q1.5: What's new in ACEDB 4_5? A1.5: At present, all documentation on new ace4_5 features is in the Proceedings of the ACE97 workshop.

A3: The software is available in binary (pre-compiled) format for a variety of machines. * Unix: o Sun/SunOS 4.x o Sun/Solaris o DEC DECstation3100, 5100 etc. o DEC Alpha/OSF-1 o Silicon Graphics Iris series 4, 5, 6 o IBM RS-6000 o PC 386/486/Pentium with Linux o NEC EWS4800 o NeXT: contact Patrick Phillips at University of Texas, NeXTmail: patrick@wbar.uta.edu email: phil@decster.uta.edu o There exist, or have existed, ports onto Alliant, Hewlett- Packard, Convex. You may have to contact the developer responsible for the port to make these real. * Windows 95/NT * Macintosh (not currently supported) The software is also available as source code, so you may be able to get it working on any machine. Memory requirements (from Richard Durbin, aug 97) The amount of memory you require for ACEDB depends very much on how big the database is (i.e. the disk space used by the database/ subdirectory). Our rule of thumb is that one typically uses 5-10Mb plus up to 10% of the disk space size of the database. So with a 200Mb database perhaps 25Mb memory, and with a 500Mb database (e.g. the C. elegans one) up to 50-60Mb. In fact for short sessions less memory is used -- it is only when all classes are explored, or for example when parsing big files that these amounts of memory get used. Return to List of Questions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q4: Can ACEDB be networked? A4: ACEDB Client / Server Computing (from Doug Bigwood, aug97) There are several client/server models for ACEDB computing and several more are in development. The start of the ACEDB client/server age began with the inclusion of aceclient and aceserver in version 4.0. These are C - based and use the RPC protocol for communication. These executables can be made from the standard ACEDB distributions. Starting in version 4.5 an xaceclient is also included with ACEDB. Xaceclient provides remote read/write access to an aceserver while providing the user with the same X displays that are found in xace. To use it, you create an empty database with the appropriate models and start xaceclient. It will automatically retrieve data from the server declared in wspec/server.wrm (the Montpellier server in the distribution server.wrm). The data will be saved locally and can then be viewed with a normal xace. A perl extension which provides aceclient functionality to Perl 5.x was developed at ACE95. The files necessary for this perl extension are now (ACEDB 4.5 and later) included in the wrpc directory of the ACEDB directory hierarchy. Documentation about how to extend perl is found at http://probe.nalusda.gov:8000/ace97/perlace/perlacecl.html. WWWAce and its successor webace were developed to provide a World Wide Web interface for ACEDB. Webace instructions can be found at http://probe.nal.usda.gov:8000/acedocs/webace.html, and http://probe.nal.usda.gov:8000/ace97/webace.html and the program itself at ftp://probe.nalusda.gov/pub/tools/webace.tar.gz. A Java-based client called Jade allows communication via sockets to an aceserver. Jade installation instructions and information on downloading can be found at http://probe.nalusda.gov:8000/ace97/Jade.installation.html. There are now development efforts underway to provide additional client/server functionality to ACEDB including a CORBA server and socket-based communications. These will likely be included in future versions of ACEDB. A new C library interface to ACEDB internals will greatly ease the development of new clients and servers that will support additional protocols. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q5: What documentation exists for ACEDB? A5: From Sam Cartinhour: The ACEDB Documentation Library is a repository for documentation concerned with "A C. elegans Data Base", the generic genome database software designed by Richard Durbin (MRC, UK) and Jean Thierry-Mieg (CNRS, France). The server is intended as a resource for developers, curators, and end-users of all (not just plant) databases derived from ace. The ACEDB documentation server is sponsored by the Plant Genome Database Project at the National Agricultural Library (USDA). The WWW documentation server is part of the Agricultural Genome Information System, at http://probe.nalusda.gov:8000/acedocs/. Documents in Postscript, wordprocessor, and other non-html formats are available by ftp at ftp://probe.nalusda.gov/pub/acedocs/.

Return to List of Questions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q7 : Is there a repository of software tools for ACEDB curators? A7: Not really, but there are several partial ones. The main tools available are for converting data from other formats to .ace format. The Agricultural Genome Information System has a growing stock of useful tools at http://probe.nalusda.gov:8000/acedocs/conversion.html. Some additional ones were contributed at the ACE97 Workshop and can be found in the Proceedings, http://probe.nalusda.gov:8000/ace97/tools/. Mike Cherry maintains an archive of tools at ftp://genome-ftp.stanford.edu/pub/acedb_dev/utilities/ For a general tool for converting data to ACEDB format input files, Joachim Baumann (joachim.baumann@informatik.uni-stuttgart.de) has written the Perl program TextConvert, available at ftp.informatic.uni.stuttgart.de/pub/DART/.

A9: From Jean Thierry-Mieg, 4/97: Obviously, i have a biased opinion, but i would say that acedb is to be recommended if the following criteria are met: 1) A very complex schema, that cannot be developed at once, but will need continuous refinement in parallel with the accumulation of the data 2) The type of questions that will be asked are rather complex, with rather fuzzy answers, that one tries to refine progressively. The acedb browsing capacities are useful in this case and have no equivalent in a relational dbms ______________ I would rather recommend sybase in the following case 1) Simple schema, that can be designed from the start and does not contain too many n.n relations and does not need recursivity 2) The type of questions that will be asked is: succession of de-correlated simple questions with simple answers ____________________ Within this context, i would then list the following goodies of acedb: 1) The ace file format, which is a powerful system to prepare and exchange data between data curators. 2) The existence of an easy graphic browsing interface 3) The availability of a biology-layer, if the application is about genetics 4) Portability (any unix machine), mac (with some limitations), windows (in development) and price (ace is a freeware). This implies that you can actually redistribute the complete system, say on a CD, something impossible with sybase. 5) Ease of use, i seriously believe that ace is much easier to configure and use than sybase. _____________________ Finally one should consider the following question: concurrency. Sybase has a well designed transaction system, which will allow roll backs and refined lockings. This is essential for an application like a booking agency, with many users in simultaneous write access. Ace is much simpler minded. The graphic acedb creates a global lock allowing a single user with write access at the time, and the modifications are not echoed to the other "read access" users in real time. The non graphic client server system allows parallel downloading of data by many users, it is intended for example for collection of robots sending their independent data in parallel. This is now well tested. A graphic client system is being developed and now runs in our hands, but is not yet released. -- Therefore, if you do need real time simultaneous write access with partial locks, and roll backs, use sybase/oracle ________________ Last issue is speed and quantities of data. In principle, sybase/oracle is unlimited, whereas acedb needs to keep around 5-10% of the data in ram. But this apparent difference is misleading. On a 32 Meg machine, you can run ace with around 300.000 objects with a complex schema at high speed. With say 1M objects, you will need more memory or the performance would totally degrade because of swapping. However, this is really a lot of data. On a similar machine, your sybase oracle will work with that amount or more data only if you do not perform too many joins. This implies that you are asking simple questions from a simple schema which was indeed our first criterion to choose sybase. If you start asking complex questions and make joins, acedb is actually much more powerful. During tests run on a big dec alpha server by Otto Ritter in decembre 1995 on several million biological objects with a complex schema, acedb was about 10 times faster than sybase, both to load the data and to answer queries. I would therefore conclude that the quantity of data is not a criterion pushing one way or the other, it is the complexity of the schema that matters.

Return to List of Questions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From owner-acedb@net.bio.net Tue Sep 30 23:00:00 1997 Path: biosci!internet!biosci!not-for-mail From: biohelp (BIOSCI Administrator) Newsgroups: bionet.software.acedb Subject: BIOSCI/bionet miniFAQ & Fundraiser Date: 1 Oct 1997 02:00:08 -0700 Organization: BIOSCI International Newsgroups for Molecular Biology Lines: 233 Sender: daemon@net.bio.net Distribution: world Message-ID: <199710010900.CAA19651@net.bio.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: net.bio.net (LAST REVISION: 30-JUL-95) This BIOSCI "miniFAQ" is designed to answer the questions that come up the *most frequently*. The main BIOSCI FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) is accessible on the World Wide Web at URL http://www.bio.net/. If you can not find an answer to your question in this or other documentation, the BIOSCI technical support staff answers e-mail queries sent to biosci-help@net.bio.net We can only answer questions about the use of the newsgroups and mailing lists. We unfortunately do not have the staff to do Internet information searches or answer scientific questions. Please post those to the appropriate BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. Contents: -------- 0) BIOSCI NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!! 1) Using the WWW to access the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. 2) What to do about "spams," i.e., junk mail, ads, etc. 3) Examples of subscribing and unsubscribing to the mailing lists. 4) The BIOSCI user address and research interest directory. 0) BIOSCI NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!! ------------------------------ BIOSCI's government funding has been expended, and we are now operating solely from advertising revenue that we have raised from our Web site at http://www.bio.net/. We need just a few minutes of your time to help us serve you. You can do two important things which will take very little time for you individually and will immensely help us continue to help you. First, please use our WWW system at http://www.bio.net/ to access the archives. You can post or reply to messages via your Web browser as described in item #1 below. Your usage helps attract sponsors. If you contact any of our sponsors, please be sure to thank them for supporting BIOSCI. It is critical for them to get this feedback if they are to continue their sponsorship for the long term. Second, if you work for a company or organization that provides products or services of interest to the biology community, please pass this message on to your marketing or marketing communications department or other appropriate group. Please ask them to help support BIOSCI by sponsoring our Web site and explain the uses and benefits of the system to the biology community. If they are interested, they can then contact us for further information at our tech support address, biosci-help@net.bio.net. 1) Using the WWW to access the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. -------------------------------------------------------- As of 10 December 1995, all BIOSCI/bionet full newsgroups are accessible through the World Wide Web (WWW) at URL http://www.bio.net. One can read and reply publicly or privately to both recent postings and archived messages through one's Web browser if it is configured properly to send e-mail. Each newsgroup is equipped with its own WAIS index. The main BIOSCI home page also has access to the BIO-JOURNALS Table of Contents database WAIS index and the BIOSCI user address database described in another item further below. 2) What to do about "spams," i.e., junk mail, ads, etc. ------------------------------------------------------- BIOSCI is a set of parallel USENET newsgroups (the "bionet" groups), mailing lists, and a hypermail archive at URL http://www.bio.net/. The same postings are distributed on all media (except for a small number of mailing-list-only groups at net.bio.net). Unfortunately it is becoming a despicable practice on the Internet (by a few people out to make a fast buck) to do automated mass postings to thousands of newsgroups and mailing lists. These attempts to grab free advertising are refered to as "spams" in the usual, somewhat boneheaded, net terminology. USENET is more susceptible to this practice, and many spams originate on the USENET groups and then are passed on to the mailing lists. However, spammers also get lists of mailing addresses and hit these too, so neither medium is immune. What should you do personally if you get junk mail? --------------------------------------------------- Just delete it and move on without reading it further. Filing a protest is becoming increasingly useless because spammers are often disguising the addresses where the messages are sent from. Unless you really understand Internet mail systems, your attempt at protest by sending replies to the message will often end up being sent to the address of an innocent person that the spammer is victimizing. What can BIOSCI/bionet do to protect its newsgroups? ---------------------------------------------------- The only solution currently available is to moderate the newsgroup. If this newsgroup is already moderated, then you are in good shape. Moderation protects the USENET distribution from about 95% of the spams that are being sent to date and protects the mailing lists completely. Moderation means, however, that someone has to take the time to review each message before it goes out. We have set up software here that simply allows the moderator to forward to an address at net.bio.net messages that (s)he wishes to have distributed. This takes no more time than that needed to read the message and pass it on, say about 1 min. per message. Most newsgroups currently have a discussion leader who is responsible for their newsgroup. The discussions leaders and their e-mail addresses are listed in the BIOSCI Information Sheet which is available on the Web at http://www.bio.net/. If a newsgroup is being hit with too many junk postings, please contact the discussion leader for that group and see if there is interest in moderating the group. Please do not assume that by simply posting a complaint to the newsgroup itself, anyone on the BIOSCI staff will act on your complaint. With close to 100 newsgroups to run, the BIOSCI staff has to rely on the discussion leaders of each newsgroup to report problems directly to us at biosci-help@net.bio.net. We will moderate any of our newsgroups if the discussion leader tells us that the readership of the group wishes to do so and if a moderator is willing to do the work. For most BIOSCI/bionet groups, this entails only a few minutes of work each day. Moderating a newsgroup will resolve probably 95% of the junk postings on the USENET distribution. Unfortunately there are easy ways for determined spammers to override the moderation mechanism on USENET, but we can protect our e-mail subscribers from unwanted postings if the newsgroup is moderated. You can also access our newsgroups over the WWW at URL http://www.bio.net. While this Web interface will not stop spammers from trying to post to the groups, this will give you yet another way, besides using USENET news, to keep the junk out of your personal mail files. For those of you with local USENET news systems, the Web interface will also give you faster access to new newsgroups and recent postings. 3) Examples of subscribing and unsubscribing to the mailing lists. ------------------------------------------------------------------ PLEASE NOTE: The BIOSCI management does NOT act on subscription/unsubscription requests that are posted improperly to the newsgroups and mailing lists. People who do this only bother everyone on the lists to no avail. Please be sure to follow the proper procedures below. Gory details are in the BIOSCI Information sheets on the Web at http://www.bio.net. Below we give an example utilizing the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS list at both of our two BIOSCI sites: Users in the Americas and Pacific Rim countries who use the BIOSCI ------------------------------------------------------------------ node at computer net.bio.net: ---------------------------- A) Determine the "listname" which is the <=8 character mail address ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ for the group. These can be found in the BIOSCI Info. Sheet. For the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS group the mailing address is methods@net.bio.net. The listname is the portion of the address to the left of the @ sign, i.e., "methods". The listname is used with the "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" commands illustrated below. B) Mail all commands in the body of a mail message addressed to biosci-server@net.bio.net. Do NOT send commands to the newsgroup posting addresses! Leave the Subject: line blank, any text on it will be ignored. C) In the body of your message put one or more of the following commands with an "end" command on the last line, e.g., subscribe methods unsubscribe methods end Do NOT put your e-mail address or other text on these lines. The server only allows you to cancel your subscription if the address on your mail header matches the address on our mailing list. Please ask for help at biosci-help@net.bio.net if your address has changed, e.g., if you know you are on the list but the server tells you that you are not a member. Users in Europe, Africa, and Central Asia who use the BIOSCI node at -------------------------------------------------------------------- computer daresbury.ac.uk (also known as dl.ac.uk): ------------------------------------------------- To subscribe and unsubscribe to/from the BIOSCI lists, you need to specify the full USENET newsgroup name with "bionet-news." prepended. The USENET newsgroup names are listed in the BIOSCI Information sheet on the Web at http://www.bio.net/. For the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS list the USENET newsgroup name is bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts, thus the appropriate commands are sub bionet-news.bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts unsub bionet-news.bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts These commands are included in a message addressed to mxt@dl.ac.uk, NOT to the newsgroup mailing addresses. As usual, include the text in the body of the message as text on the Subject: line is ignored. To unsubscribe from all the lists at the UK node, use unsub bionet-news Please note that if the address in the list is different than the one in your mail message header, you will not be able to unsubscribe by this method.
