The 1994 CBE (Council of Biology Editors) manual, Scientific Style and Format, describes two systems of documentation, the citation-sequence system and the name-year system. This handout provides guidelines for each system. (For a class paper, check to see if your instructor prefers one of these systems or another. For a journal article, check the journal's instructions to authors to find out which system to use.) The CBE manual specifies that journal titles should be abbreviated, and it provides rules for abbreviation and a list of standard abbreviations of words commonly used in titles. Although this handout focuses on documentation style, you should be aware that the manual also contains information on many other aspects of scientific style, from prose style to handling of numbers, tables and figures, and conventions in a variety of scientific areas. ...

The Global Names Architecture (GNA) is a system of databases, programs, and web services - a cyberinfrastructure - that can be used to discover, index, organize and interconnect on-line information about organisms and their names. When a thing has a name, that name becomes an anchor around which we can collect our observations and knowledge. The use of names as a framework for knowledge of biology began with the system of scientific names introduced by Linnaeus about 250 years ago. His approach was to use latin binomials, such as Ba humbugi (it's a snail), Pompholyxophrys punicea (a microbe) or Homo sapiens (a self-aware biped). This system is still used for almost all organisms. Names are included in almost every statement and database about organisms. In the e-world, names are metadata which can be used to discover and organize information about organisms. The Global Names Architecture is a communal open environment that manages names so that we can manage information about organisms and serve the needs of biologists. ... [Information of the supplier]
The intention of the GoldenGATE editor is to build a bridge between NLP components and XML markup of natural language text according to arbitrary XML schemas. It allows the deployment of NLP components to marking up the bodies of literature they were designed for. In this way, it enables transforming the texts into XML content according to an XML schema that was designed to gain maximum benefit from the knowledge provided in them. The GoldenGATE editor picks up the ideas of plug-in processing resources and pipelined processing implemented in the GATE framework (http://www.gate.co.uk), which has been widely used in many areas of NLP research. At the same time, it provides a full XML editor including assistance for manipulation of both text and markup, thus allowing users to improve data quality by manual intervention. In order to achieve maximum flexibility and extensibility, the GoldenGATE editor provides plug-and-play interfaces on many levels: Individual automated components for markup creation and manipulation, entire groups of functionalities, components accessing documents in arbitrary storage locations, and arbitrary document data formats. ...

GONUTS is a Gene Ontology Normal Usage Tracking System. The GONUTS wiki has been set up to provide third-party documentation for users of the Gene Ontology Project. The GO wiki is not an official product of the GO consortium. It was built by users at TAMU for newcomers to GO who want to explore GO usage. The rationale for this wiki is described in "About GONUTS". To enter the ontology pages, go to the GO page, or search for a term. For more information about how this wiki is automatically updated, see GO wiki scripts. For Help using the system, see Help: Contents, which is available in the navigation links from all pages. See Current events for what's new with the GONUTS wiki. Leave comments and suggestions on our Known Issues page. ... [Information of the supplier]
