Abstract :
As great amount of data are being produced and accumulated in life sciences, information access and consequent integration in analytical and computational methods become critical issues in order to conduct research. In this work we describe how the synergic combination of a high-level programmable planner engine and formal semantics are suitable to resolve many information integration problems in molecular biology.
