This document specifies the structure of BioCompute Objects. The specification is split into multiple parts linked to this top-level document and is maintained in a [https://github.com/biocompute-objects/BCO_Specification GitHub repository] where contributions are welcome. This document was created by the [[Main_Page#BioCompute_Object_Consortium_members_(BCOC)|BioCompute Object Consortium members (BCOC)]].
 
== The BioCompute Standard ==
 
Because of the many different ways to organize data, a major goal of the BioCompute project is to build and maintain a formal standard through recognized, accredited standards setting organizations like the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the International Standards Organization (ISO). A formal, consensus-based standard builds predictability and even more stability into the way in which bioinformatic methods are communicated.
 
The standard, officially known as 2791-2020, has two parts: the standards document and the schema, which is maintained in an open source repository:
 
* The current version of the standard can be found [here](https://standards.ieee.org/standard/2791-2020.html)**.
* The schema can be found [here](https://opensource.ieee.org/2791-object/ieee-2791-schema)**.
 
Since the base BioCompute schema is maintained as an open source repository, it can be cloned and integrated into an organization in unique ways, which allows organizations to build off of this schema to create dependent standards for specific applications. This is similar to the different versions of WiFi based on usage, such as the 802.11a standard for fast speed, but high cost and shorter range, or the 802.11b for slower top speed, but lower cost, etc. --- all of which are built on the 802.11 base standard. It can also be used to further extend the schema, such as for handling proprietary, internal content, while still being compatible with the base standard. The open source schema also enables individuals or organizations to suggest changes to be incorporated into future versions the standard.

BCOs are represented in JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) formatted text, adhering to [https://json-schema.org/specification.html JSON schema draft-07]. The JSON format was chosen because it is both human and machine-readable/writable. For a detailed description of JSON see [http://www.json.org www.json.org].

The FAQ section contains a list of questions asked by users regarding using the portal, pipeline steps, and extensions as well as questions related to the prerequisite, knowledgebase recommendation, and saving and publishing BCOs.


BioCompute data types are defined as aggregates of the critical fields organized into the following domains: the provenance domain, the usability domain, the extension domain, the description domain, the execution domain, the parametric domain, and the input and output domains, and the error domain. At the time of creation with actual values compliant with the schema the BCO should be assigned a unique identifier, a [[Top-level|object_id]]. The object could then be assigned a unique digital [[Top-level#ETag_%E2%80%9Cetag%E2%80%9D|etag]].

A BioCompute Object (BCO) is an instance of the BioCompute standard and is a computational record of a bioinformatics pipeline. A BCO is not an analysis but is a record of which analyses were executed and in exactly which ways. In this way, a BCO acts as an interface for existing standards. A BCO contains all of the necessary information to repeat an entire pipeline from FASTQ to result and includes additional metadata to identify provenance and usage.

BioCompute project is being developed with Title 21 CFR Part 11 compliance in mind. The digital signatures incorporated into the format will provide the basis for the provenance of BioCompute Object integrity using NIST proposed encryption algorithms. Execution domain and parametric domain (that have a potential impact on a result of computation) and identity domain will be used to create hash values and digital signature encryption keys which later can be used for computer or human validation of transmitted objects.

Discussions are now taking place to consider the relevance of BioCompute Objects in relation to Title 21 CFR part 11. We encourage continuous input from BioCompute stakeholders on this subject now and while the concept is becoming more mature and more widely accepted by scientific and regulatory communities.

==== ISA for the experimental metadata ====
# [[RO-Crate]]
ISA is a metadata framework to manage an increasingly diverse set of life science, environmental and biomedical experiments that employ one or a combination of technologies. Built around the Investigation (the project context), Study (a unit of research), and Assay (analytical measurements) concepts, ISA helps to provide rich descriptions of experimental metadata (i.e. sample characteristics, technology and measurement types, sample-to-data relationships) so that the resulting data and discoveries are reproducible and reusable. The ISA Model and Serialization Specifications define an Abstract Model of the metadata framework that has been implemented in two format specifications, ISA-Tab and ISA-JSON (http://isa-tools.org/format/specification), both of which have supporting tools and services associated with them, including by a programmable Python AP (http://isa-tools.org) and a varied user community and contributors (http://www.isacommons.org). ISA focuses on structuring experimental metadata; raw and derived data files, codes, workflows, etc are considered external files that are referenced. An example, along with its complementarity with other models and a computational workflow is illustrated in this paper, which shows how to explicitly declare elements of experimental design, variables, and findings: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0127612
