Relational database management architecture

Fig. 8.5 Software-enabled assay development. The CiphergenExpress Software with Data Manager and Biomarker Analysis Modules Isa relational database system with a client-server architecture designed for automated sample tracking and advanced data analysis. After identification and selection of clusters for meaningful data reduction, univariate and multivariate data analysis tools are used for the detection of single and multiple...

Furthermore, SPARQL queries formulated for the ontology have to be translated into the query language associated with the relational database. An approach applying this architecture is for instance the Apache Jena SDB. It allows the data of the model to be stored in a relational database, like Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, or HSQLDB. A Jena SDB storage can be accessed and managed with the Jena API and can be queried using SPARQL. Sesame also facilitates relational... 

Data base management system (DBMS) The computer program that is used to control and provide rapid access to a database. A language is used with the DBMS to control the functions that a DBMS provides. For example, SQL is the language that is used to control all of the functions that a relational architecture based DBMS provides for its users, including data definition, data retrieval,...
