Hi Yves--

I'm very interested in finding out more about what use cases you've
compiled for your model repository. I've visited a few such sites (EBI
Biomodels, Reactome, 3J, Jigcell) and would very much like to find out
what additional sorts of metadata have been regarded as useful in
organizing and searching for models. Please get in touch and let me know
if you can.

Best--

Subject: Re: [sbml-discuss] SOAP and webservices


we decided the following approach: the webservice will be a way to query
the database to find pathways/reactions of interest (e.g.: "show me all
reactions/pathways that involve Lactose" or "show me all pathways
updated after my last visit on
5/10/2007"). At the end, the user always gets back an ID that points to
a pre-generated SBML file that represents the relevant pathway. We may
extend this granularity one step further to reactions (so that a custom
set of relevant reactions may be embedded in a single SBML-file,
regardless of which pathway they belong to).

The webservice has been developed, however is currently under revision
to coordinate methods with an alternate Java-based API.

As for the SBML-files: my focus is now on how to integrate our custom
annotation in the form of BioPax.
