Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
BUILD Build describes the process by which a biological construct, sample, or clone is implemented in the laboratory.
DESIGN Design describes the process by which a conceptual representation of an engineer’s imagined and intended design for a biological system is derived, possibly from a predictive model or by modifying a pre-existing design.
LEARN Learn describes the process of analyzing experimental measurements to produce a new entity that represents biological knowledge.
TEST Test describes the process of performing experimental measurements to characterize a synthetic biological construct.

Enum Constant Detail

DESIGN

public static final ActivityRoleType DESIGN

Design describes the process by which a conceptual representation of an engineer’s imagined and intended design for a biological system is derived, possibly from a predictive model or by modifying a pre-existing design. In the context of an Association, the term design indicates that the agent performed the parent Activity to generate a design. In the context of a Usage, the term indicates that the referenced entity was generated by some previous design Activity and was used by the present Activity as a design for a new object.

BUILD

public static final ActivityRoleType BUILD

Build describes the process by which a biological construct, sample, or clone is implemented in the laboratory. In the context of an Association, the term build indicates that the agent performed the parent Activity to implement a design. More generally, the term may represent any kind of experimental manipulation of a biological sample, including propagating, passaging, or evolving cell lines. In the context of a Usage, the term indicates that the referenced entity was generated by some previous build Activity and was used by the present Activity as a built object.

TEST

public static final ActivityRoleType TEST

Test describes the process of performing experimental measurements to characterize a synthetic biological construct. In the context of an Association, the Agent performed the parent Activity to perform experimental measurements resulting in raw data represented by Attachments. In the context of a Usage, the term indicates that the referenced entity was generated by some previous test Activity and is used as test data in the present Activity.

LEARN

public static final ActivityRoleType LEARN

Learn describes the process of analyzing experimental measurements to produce a new entity that represents biological knowledge. In the context of an Association, the Agent processed raw experimental data to produce an analysis. This process generates a new entity that represents biological knowledge, including tables or graphs contained by Attachment, a Model produced by a fitting process, a consensus Sequence derived from sequencing results, etc. In the context of a Usage, the term indicates that the referenced entity was generated by some previous learn Activity and is used in the present Activity as a source of scientifically verified knowledge.

Method Detail

values

public static ActivityRoleType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (ActivityRoleType c : ActivityRoleType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ActivityRoleType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Enum<ActivityRoleType>
