Task: Class Definition Understanding (ontology: Sciences/Computer_Science)

Which of the following definitions best describes 'COBRA'?

A. the concept is the complete enterprise microarray informatics platform for microarray data storage, data filtering and data analysis. It analysis tools for quality, visualizations for discovery and Data Management for Security.
B. the concept provides a shared community resource that handles the data processing component of sequencing analysis, providing researchers with more time to focus on the downstream biology.
C. the concept (COnstraint-Based Reconstruction and Analysis Toolbox) includes implementations of many of the commonly used forms of constraint-based analysis such as FBA, gene deletions, flux variability analysis, sampling, and batch simulations together with tools to read in and manipulate constraint-based models.
D. the concept is a standalone GUI program for Windows (and Linux) to compute gene expression summary values for Affymetrix Genechip® data using the Robust Multichip Average expression summary and to carry out quality assessment using probe-level metrics. It does not require R nor is it dependent on any component of the BioConductor project. If focuses on processing 3' IVT expression arrays, exon and WT gene arrays.

Answer: the concept (COnstraint-Based Reconstruction and Analysis Toolbox) includes implementations of many of the commonly used forms of constraint-based analysis such as FBA, gene deletions, flux variability analysis, sampling, and batch simulations together with tools to read in and manipulate constraint-based models.
