+Description:  The NCBI ToolBox consists of three major parts:
+
+Data Model - An explicit data model of biological sequences, structures, bibliographic data, and associated annotations.
+Data Encoding - A formal specification and encoding rules. The telecommunications standard, ASN.1, has been used for this. Recently it has been mapped to a similar language, XML.
+Programming Libraries - Originally written in a portable dialect of C. Recently a new generation is being written in C++.
