Linkage of data to curated and derived annotation information. Variables of a data type (such as genes or genomic loci) are referenced by their ordinal position. The ordinal position can be directly linked to derived statistics (such as t-test against patient survival) or to named identifiers (such as a Genbank IDs). Identifiers are then used to link data to curated annotations (such as genomic mapping information).
