Application of Information Technology: Organization of Heterogeneous Scientific Data Using the EAV/CR Representation

Application of Information Technology: Achieving Evolvable Web-Database Bioscience Applications Using the EAV/CR Framework: Recent Advances

The EAV/CR framework, designed for database support of rapidly evolving scientific domains, utilizes metadata to facilitate schema maintenance and automatic generation of Web-enabled browsing interfaces to the data. EAV/CR is used in SenseLab, a neuroscience database that is part of the national Human Brain Project. This report describes various enhancements to the framework. These include (1) ...

Research Paper: Exploring Performance Issues for a Clinical Database Organized Using an Entity-Attribute-Value Representation

BACKGROUND The entity-attribute-value representation with classes and relationships (EAV/CR) provides a flexible and simple database schema to store heterogeneous biomedical data. In certain circumstances, however, the EAV/CR model is known to retrieve data less efficiently than conventionally based database schemas. OBJECTIVE To perform a pilot study that systematically quantifies performanc...

Representation of Adsorption Data for the Case of Energetically Heterogeneous Solid Surfaces Using Artificial Neural Network

Exploring Performance Issues for a Clinical Database Organized Using an Entity-Attribute-Value Representation

Objective: To perform a pilot study that systematically quantifies performance differences for database queries directed at real-world microbiology data modeled with EAV/CR and conventional representations, and to explore the relative merits of different EAV/CR query implementation strategies. Methods: Clinical microbiology data obtained over a ten-year period were stored using both database mo...

Designing a Model about the Relationship between Proponents of Information Technology on Administrative Corruption as an Unethical Feature

Background: In the third millennium, sports organizations have adopted information technologies using smart systems, office automation to reform organizational structures, prevent administrative violations, and provide better services. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between the proponents of information technology (IT) on administrative corruption in sport ...
