How can you use “biod” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
To accomplish this, BioD object data structures would have to be extended to first represent functional properties and then provide action arrows with logical rules or mathematical functions that determine how the states of linked icons affect each other.
Rather, in our approach to designing and developing BioD, we have begun with basic cell-biological models as test beds for BioD's conceptual framework (that is, of functional properties, icons and arrows), its lexicon and its icon-arrow linking rules (tantamount to a 'graphical grammar').
Second, to link model elements into distributed networks on the internet, XML-encoded BioD objects and models can be linked using XLink (XML Linking Language [ 22]) and queried for patterns of functional interactions using query languages such as Lore (Lightweight Object Repository [ 23]) that have been developed for distributed, semistructured data.
In creating the BioD lexicon and drawing conventions we have opted for simple icons and arrows (more elaborate and expressive graphics can readily be imagined) so that diagrams can be easily drawn by hand or with a variety of general purpose computer graphics applications.
In effect, BioD models would fill the descriptive and analytical gap between informal cartoons and fully quantitative mathematical models.
