| === Abstract ===
| |
| | |
| :Title: '''OOR Sandbox and OOR Requirements - Comparative Analysis''' - by [[ToddSchneider|Todd Schneider]] - [https://ontologforum.s3.amazonaws.com/OOR-Ontolog-Panel/2009-10-15_OOR-BioPortal-Comparative-Analysis/Ontolog_OOR-BioPortal_ComparativeAnalysis--ToddSchneider_20091015.ppt slides]
| |
| | |
| : '''With the benefit of the NCBO [[BioPortal]] as a sandbox for OOR testing and experimentation, an analysis comparing the sandbox against the OOR requirements is needed. This comparison should provide a) future directions for [[BioPortal]], and b) facilitate the understanding of the OOR architecture and its development priorities.'''

| |
| ** ''Abstract:'' [[BioPortal]] is a community-based repository of biomedical ontologies (http://bioportal.bioontology.org). [[BioPortal]] code currently forms the basis of the OOR sandbox. However, [[BioPortal]] has its own requirements and user community and therefore some of the [[BioPortal]] current status and outlook differs from the OOR Requirements. In this talk, we will focus on OOR requirements that are not yet addressed by [[BioPortal]] and will discuss our team's plans with respect to these requirements.

| |
| ** ''Abstract:'' It is sometimes said that the best way to understand a subject is to try to teach it. Accordingly, I will report on what I learned about OOR from my current attempt to use it in a course. In particular, I learned that even after introducing students to the concepts underlying ontologies and the Semantic Web it was still unclear what OOR was storing and how it differed from a generic repository such as subversion. I will discuss some of the issues that were already raised in the course as well as issues that I anticipate will be encountered as the course proceeds.

| |
| ** ''Abstract:'' this talk will cover some of the background and plan at OMG towards setting up an OOR for their standards

| |
| | |
| Natasha Noy: To Todd: you mentioned the work of [[TopQuadrant]] as the best
| |
| | |
| example of being ontologically driven. Which work are you referring to?
| |
| | |
| [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: @Todd: slide#14 ... I suggest we should weight the pros and
| |
| | |
| cons of providing "editing/creation" support from OOR (as other
| |
| | |
| dedicated editing platforms would probably do a better job)
| |
| | |
| [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: @Todd: slide#17 - why "thick client"?
| |
| | |
| [[MichaelGruninger|Michael Grüninger]]: Todd: Can you elaborate what you meant by
| |
| | |
| modularization?
| |
| | |
| [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: @Todd - slide#21 - good stuff!
| |
| | |
| [[HaroldSolbrig|Harold Solbrig]]: WSDL and REST don't work that well together. What is the
| |
| | |
| current state of the WADL spec?
| |
| | |
| [[CarlosRueda|Carlos Rueda]] (MBARI): @Ken = slide 5: good point. An strategy we have
| |
| | |
| integrated into our deployment of [[BioPortal]] is to use the URIs of the
| |
| | |
| ontologies and their concepts as the main identifiers. In other words,
| |
| | |
| at least in our case, this has been motivated by our requirement to make
| |
| | |
| URIs first-class citizens in our ontology registry.
| |
| | |
| [[MichaelGruninger|Michael Grüninger]]: @Ken: By transformations do you mean mappings between
| |
| | |
| an ontology that is represented in multiple languages (e.g. OWL-Time vs
| |
| | |
| CL-Time) or is it between two ontologies that are logically equivalent?
| |
| | |
| [[User:KennethBaclawski|Ken Baclawski]]: @Carlos - Great! Please send me the details.
| |
| | |
| [[User:KennethBaclawski|Ken Baclawski]]: @Michael - I was mainly thinking of transformations
| |
| | |
| between representations in different languages. Not just ontologies BTW
| |
| | |
| since the OOR has more in it than just ontologies. Transformations
| |
| | |
| between ontologies that are logically equivalent is also interesting,
| |
| | |
| but I was not dealing with that since it is not as relevant for the OOR
| |
| | |
| at least in the near to mid-term. | |
| | |
| [[CarlosRueda|Carlos Rueda]] (MBARI): @Ken: unfortunately, this is in need of good
| |
| | |
| documentation :/ .. in the meantime, I'll be happy to talk about it if
| |
| | |
| you wish. A quick note, however: we haven't done any modifications to
| |
| | |
| the [[BioPortal]] back-end; rather this is handled by a new interface layer
| |
| | |
| we have developed.
| |
| | |
| [[User:KennethBaclawski|Ken Baclawski]]: @Harold - The latest version of WSDL, version 2.0, can
| |
| | |
| specify RESTful services, so it isn't so clear that WADL is very useful
| |
| | |
| anymore.
| |
| | |
| [[HaroldSolbrig|Harold Solbrig]]: @Ken - tried to use it briefly, but ran into problems.
| |
| | |
| Will give it another look if you think that it really subsumes WADL
| |
| | |
| functionality...
| |
| | |
| [[MichaelGruninger|Michael Grüninger]]: @Ken: What else does OOR contain besides ontologies
| |
| | |
| that you would want to transform?
| |
| | |
| [[ToddSchneider|Todd Schneider]]: To All: I'll have to get back on any questions asked of me.
| |
| | |
| [[MichaelGruninger|Michael Grüninger]]: @Todd: Can you give more detailed examples of rules
| |
| | |
| and policies in OOR?
| |
| | |
| [[TerryLongstreth|Terry Longstreth]]: @Todd: ..can you expand on the issue of real time?
| |
| | |
| [[User:KennethBaclawski|Ken Baclawski]]: @Michael - There are many examples, such as rules,
| |
| | |
| policies, and configurations.
| |
| | |
| [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: @Todd: I don't believe I can get my vice through ... but I
| |
| | |
| had two questions (see above) ... one on doing editing in the context of
| |
| | |
| OOR (rather than doing that elsewhere) and the other on your choice of
| |
| | |
| thick client ... can you discuss that, please?
| |
| | |
| [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: yes ... thanks (although I would still hope we focus first on
| |
| | |
| the thin client)
| |
| | |
| [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: thank you, Todd, thanks everyone ... great session!
| |
