MOTIVATION
Links between biological objects are frequently used by researchers in biology. However, many of the links found in public databases are insufficiently documented and difficult to retrieve. Virgil introduces the idea of a rich link, i.e. the link itself and the related pieces of information. Virgil was developed to collect, manage and distribute such links.
RESULTS
At the moment, Virgil is a prototype database that contains rich links between GDB genes and Genbank sequences. The Virgil data model is rich enough to describe comprehensively a link between two biological objects. Two different means to access the information were developed: a schema-driven Web interface and a CORBA server.

动机
生物学研究人员经常使用生物对象之间的联系。然而，公共数据库中发现的许多联系记录不充分且难以检索。Virgil引入了丰富链接的概念，即链接本身及相关信息片段。开发Virgil是为了收集、管理和分发此类链接。
结果
目前，Virgil是一个原型数据库，其中包含GDB基因与Genbank序列之间的丰富链接。Virgil数据模型足够丰富，能够全面描述两个生物对象之间的联系。开发了两种不同的信息访问方式：模式驱动的Web界面和CORBA服务器。
