First Release of Semantic Components

Semantic component open source code was released today for the first time. Semantic components are ontology-driven components, or widgets, based on Flex. They take record descriptions, ontologies and target attributes/types as inputs and then output some (possibly interactive) visualizations of the records.  Nearly a dozen initial components were released. Here is more information about the library:

OpenStructs Expanded; Groups Consolidated

Today we greatly expanded the content of this site, particularly in the areas of semantic components, open semantic frameworks and conStruct. We consolidated three related groups -- irON, structWSF and conStruct -- under the single Open Semantic Framework Google group [1]. We also began the orderly shutdown of the conStruct Web site, in the process moving its demo and content here.

structWSF 1.0a6 released!

We just released structWSF version 1.0a6. This is not a major modification to the system, but it fixes multiple small issues.This put the basis to release the Semantic Component library in the following weeks.

Open Semantic Framework Introduced

The OpenStructs open semantic framework (OSF) was formally articulated and announced today. OSF provides the umbrella context for most of the individual tools and systems on the OpenStructs site. A new main tab (OSF) has been devoted to it on this site.

Global structWSF Statistics Report

Today we released a simple structWSF nodes statistics report. It aggregates different statistics from all know (and accessible) structWSF nodes on the Web. It is still in its early stage, but aggregated statistics so far are quite interesting.

The report is accessible here in all time. The report is updated hourly.

 

conStruct 6.x-1.x-dev-5 released!

We just released conStruct version6.x-1.x-dev-5. This put the basis to release the Semantic Component library in the following weeks.

structWSF Web Services Tutorial

One of the major issue with structWSF was the lack of tutorial documents that shows how users can interact with a structWSF instance or a network of instances. We just published a complete tutorial document that explains how to interact with a structWSF instance based on common usecases. This tutorial includes:

structWSF 1.0a5 released!

We just released structWSF version 1.0a5. This is not a major modification to the system, but it fixes multiple small issues. Additionally, we released a new Web Services Tutorial document that shows how to interact with the structWSF web services endpoint.
 

structWSF 1.0a4 released!

We just released structWSF version 1.0a4. This is a major upgrade of the system. Additionally, we released a brand new installation manual which should make the installation process much easier than it was. Please report any issues, questions or comments about structWSF to the mailing list.
