SMS_KR Developers Meeting Notes May 2005

Difference between version 28 and version 27:

Line 122 was replaced by line 122
- !! Automated Workflow (Thursday, 5th, 2005)
+ !! Semi-automated workflow composition(Thursday, 5th, 2005)
At line 123 added 17 lines.
+ * Given a connection (relation) between two actors that has been flagged as incompatible, what next?
+ ** We want to allow for adapter insertion
+ ** Where the adapter can be "implemented" according to a number of approaches
+ *** Search for actors/composites that can perform the conversion
+ **** We want to use the "parameter dependencies" to insert the simple adapters
+ **** We want to provide simple structural conversions, like map
+ **** This could employ "planning" style approaches as well
+ *** If structural and not semantic, apply a DILS-like approach, given as input to SCIA
+ *** If structural and semantic, apply SCIA
+ *** Allow user to fill in the adapter itself
+
+ * Changes to SCIA that may be needed
+ ** Performance issues:
+ *** Generating XQuery, converting to XML, etc., may not be efficient in certain situations
+ *** Try outputing R instead
+ *** Try compiling directly to Java code
+ *** Search for existing conversions as a user elaborates a mapping (needs to call sms search capabilities ?)
At line 126 added 1 line.
