<TITLE>ZMap Design</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<blockquote><strong>
<P>The purpose of this document is to be a repository for all aspects of the design
of ZMap.
<P>Pictures are allowed, just include them in the cvs directory.
<H1>Requirements, Wish Lists, Suggestions etc.</H1>
<H2>Requirements</H2>
<P>Record anything here that is essential to ZMap.
<H3>Mapping in the client</H3>
<P>We should strongly consider putting a modified (i.e. acedb-less SMap) into
the client, this would allow the client to map different sorts of data onto
its virtual sequence provided it had the initial mapping from the new data
to its own virtual sequence.
<P>This would be very powerful because it would mean the client could accept
data from many sources and map it as long as it had the extent of the data
in the virtual sequence.
<H3>How to indicate strand</H3>
<P>In acedb we have traditionally had the down strand to the right and the up strand
to the left of the scale, this has some advantages but could be augmented visually
with exons that had pointy bits to show their direction etc.
<P>We could go for everything being shown on one side of a scale but this seems
a bit retrograde to me, the display is actually something that marks the fmap
out from other viewers in a good way.
<H3>Richer glyph set</H3>
<P>We need a richer glyph set, perhaps with exon shapes that indicate direction and
other such stuff, e.g. how about indicating start/end_not_found etc.
<H2>Wish List</H2>
<P>Record anything here that you would like to be considered but is non-essential.
