Add relationship between the Dataset and the DataAcquisition entities #61

Closed agbeltran closed 6 years ago

agbeltran commented 6 years ago

Currently, we need to represent the study to represent the DataAcquisition method. However, from a Dataset-focused representation, the study is usually implicit. In this case, we have no way to specify the DataAcquisition method and link it to the Dataset.

We should consider to add a direct link between Dataset and DataAcquisition.

e.g. see https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-70652/

When E-GEOD-70652 represents the dataset rather than the study, we cannot link directly to the Array.

This issue refers to the same relationship as in the issue #65. Closing this one.
