This is version 21.
It is not the current version, and thus it cannot be edited.
[Back to current version]
[Restore this version]
- Updates: Overview and Progress
- Ontology-based browsing and searching
- Coherent file-manager with caching for actors and remote services (see IdentifiersInKepler)
- using LSIDs for identifying actors and services
- relationship to an 'Actor Repository' and EcoGrid
- Pipeline integration tasks
- Actor-actor integration
- Data-actor integration
- How do we annotate datasets, and what can we do with it if we do
- Utilizing Jenny Wang's schema matching tool
- Distributed execution of kepler models
- Choosing one (or more) distributing computing platforms
- Should the Director be kept in the computation?
- Dynamic loading of jar files with actors
- Data access in ecogrid
- query, get, put, etc.
- should these be instantiated as actors?
- archiving kepler products in the ecogrid
- how do we generate appropriate metadata for archived products?
- semantic annotation/registration for EcoGrid data objects
- Actors -- do we have a complete set?
- GIS actors -- more needed?
- Statistical actors
- Anova, regression, various other stats nicely wrapped up (wrap R?)
- Integrating R scripts in a semantically-meaningful way
- Kepler UI
- what's right, what's wrong, what can we realistically fix
- guidelines on how to consistently extend and organize the Kepler UI
- From-scratch design of a semantics-driven UI
- what would we build in a world free of contraints
- Goals and work plan for the next year
- Ontology based browsing and searching
- add functionality to add new actors to the ontology
- add functionality to change ontology views
- add functionality to allow user to put actors into different folders in an ontology
- add functionality to suggest actors that can be used with other actors (SMS)
- add functionality to add ontologies
- change categorization to a connection based cat.
- choose an actor then the org would change to be only actors that would work with the chosen one.
- 3 interfaces
- browse
- search
- contextual reduction of actor base
- Semantic Mediation
- New EML module to describe processing
- data management
- search, organize, store data (morphepler)
- query subsystem
- filesystem management ala morpho
- some see a need to control the file management for controlling ids and file locations
- could specify a directory(ies) that would hold the data/metadata. the user would then drop objects into that area for the system to process.
- system could be searched for kzip (or whatever) files and periodically updated. would need a system wide index of kzip files.
- workflow transfer system
- zip up workflow so it can be easily transfered
- don't require the use of the ecogrid
- archive format
- workflow, data, actors with metadata for each (verifiable-checksum, etc).
- method descriptions for workflows
- extend EML method
- OWL in AdditionalMetadata?
- other possible metadata standards
- ACTION ITEM: need a workflow metadata language for semantically describing
the workflow
- Annotate a specific set of data sources and targets
- start with Matt's Red Spruce integration example
- then work through increasingly complex examples (e.g., Cox's biodiv data)
- Annotate the "component library" so that we know what functions they perform and how they relate to the "conversion" tasks, and how to model the conversion tasks
- e.g., given species abundance and area, "can calculate" density, then label the actors that can do this computation with that annotation
- Finish task list for additional features that need to be completed
