    1414This situation prevents these services to be popularized for and used in combination by end users as a infrastructure of the daily research. 
    1515The BioMOBY project has been tried to overcome the circumstances by defining ontologies for data types and methods used in the services. 
    16 But the set of data types and methods gathered in BioMOBY are redundant and complicated to generate typical workflows for end users. 
    17 Besides, some of the major service providers are not included yet. 
     16But the set of data types and methods gathered in BioMOBY looks redundant and complicated to generate typical workflows for end users. 
     17Besides, some of the major service providers are not included in the BioMOBY framework yet. 
     18In DBCLS, we are trying to develop a new proxy server which translates user's request for the appropriate web service provider. 
     19The server will also converts the query and result to the simplified/unified data types, say "50 basic bioinformatics data types" (might be a subset of BioMOBY). 
     20Anyway, interoperability can be significantly improved if all Bio* libraries supports them and we just need a practical environment for bioinformatics. 
    1821Thus, we believe gathering all web service providers and Open Bio* library developers to disucuss about the standardization of objects and methods among web services and programming languages must benefit usability and interoperability for the life science in the next era.
