Difference between version 14 and version 13:

Lines 29-30 were replaced by lines 29-39
- ** What SHIMs are:
- ***
+ ** SHIM (need acronym)
+ *** semantically compatible, syntactically incompatible services
+ *** uniprot database (uniprot_record) -> parser and filter shim -> blastp analysis (protein_sequence)
+ *** working definition: a software component who's main purpose is to syntactically match otherwise incompatible resources. it takes some input, performs some task and produces an output. depending on usage, a shim can be semantically neutral ...
+ *** in myGrid, basically doing type manipulations (map between abstract types to concrete types), e.g., embl, genbank, fasta concrete types, dna_sequence is an abstract type
+ *** examples:
+ **** parser / filter
+ **** de-referencer
+ **** syntax translator
+ **** mapper
+ **** iterator
At line 32 added 1 line.
