| Abstract |
|
Curated scientific databases such as the IUPHAR database
resemble conventional publications such as reference
manuals in that they represent the work of a large
number of people who both create and revise their contents.
The difference is that curated databases have
more internal structure and that they change more
for supporting citation of data: there are few standards,
there is little supporting technology, and the
requirements above, if they are met at all, are met in
an ad hoc fashion.
