title: Information retrieval maps for biomedical research.
abstract: Integration of computer-based information sources should be useful for biomedical research. An information retrieval map is a graphical representation of a set of expert rules for integrating computer-based information sources based on the data connections among those information sources. The use and implementation of an information retrieval map for sequence alignment is described.
