SMS Breakout Nov 2004

Difference between version 42 and version 37:

At line 91 added 8 lines.
+ * Nico on Taxon / SMS
+ ** partial overlaps
+ ** give me the ants of south america ... give all concepts of ants (may be thousands) ...
+ ** Deana: in biodiversity use case; want to group by function, which is similar to form
+ *** Several international ones that are comprehensive in traits and functions
+ *** Weren't sure the relevance to north america plants
+ *** in KNB now, can do exactly the same search (via ITIS) ... through markup via EML
+ ** rich: given two identifiers how are they similar
Line 95 was replaced by lines 103-116
- **
+ ** schema mapping language ... what is taxon doing versus what is sms doing (for annotations) and how can each be informed by each other
+ *** for taxon, mapping into exchange schema ... trying to determine how concepts are represented within a database
+ *** for sms, mapping into ontology
+ ** more examples for annotation
+ *** deana possible small kr/sms working group to identify useful items to annotation (workflow and data) and map to Rich's ontologies
+ ** interface for annotation ... filtering Rich's ontology ... to form-style interface for annotation (Laura, Jessie, and Deana)
+ ** graph-based ontology queries for filtering and selecting ontology (Serguei, GrOWL)
+ ** SMS/Taxon link-up points
+ *** compare mapping languages
+ *** data discovery queries w/ taxon
+ *** similarity between ids
+ *** operations that sms needs ... taxon ops that sms needs
+ *** how does sms know when to call a taxon service? e.g., via which concepts in the rich's ontology?
+ ** sparrow to owl; owl to sparrow
At line 96 added 1 line.
