Mike Travers -- Afferent/MDL -- Drug Discovery (853 words) |
 | The Afferent software consists of three layers: an object model that defines the ontology of the drug discovery process and provides a way to store and manipulate the relevant objects, a user interface that makes this data visible to the user, and application-level code that provides the virtual chemistry and other logic. |
| AfferentÒ³ object model includes the basic objects found in other chemistry software (molecules and reactions) but goes beyond them to store complex objects such as libraries and synthesis protocols. |
| Another benefit of writing the Afferent applications in Lisp is the ability to rapidly evolve the code base, and even generate new applications. |
