** Phase 1

*** Create a virtual server in CNR (?) where the application could be deployed as it is.
+
*** Start with one word entry, then uploading a csv file.
+
** Phase 2
+
*** Embed the interface of that server in the infrastructure.
+
*** But as far as possible FIN would like to skip that one. Only if there is urgency for presentations or else.
+
** Phase 3
+
*** Develop the interface as a portlet.
+
*** Create the BiOnym VRE (can be done asap).
+
*** Put the portlet in production in BiOnym and BR VREs.

Notes

BiOnym paper

  • Review of various papers collected by Edward and Anton.

In particular Boyle et al. 2013 in BMC Bioinformatics about a taxon name matching they developed for plants.

Apparently a mix between the GNI parser, and the Tony's Taxamatch. To explore if there are improvements over Taxamatch or if it is only an effect of linking GNI parser + Taxamatch.

  • Finish section 2 and 5 for the next week call (Edward, Nicolas, Fabio).
  • Comparison with same systems in other domain, e.g., vessel names.
  • GP to modify section 3 and 4.
  • Intro of section 3.5: It is the restricted matching running process workflow, not the overall BiOnym conceptual workflow, so can be kept here.
  • Complete the point 5.6 in the discussion about how we evaluated the performance (Edward). But still to evaluate if not better in 4.4.
  • Discussion on details of reporting (to complete if necessary).
  • Section 4: 3 paragraphs as section 3.4 (GP or Edward).
  • Should we move the paragraph on parser comparison to discussion? To be evaluated (Fabio).

User Interface

  • Machine set up in CNR but there is an issue about MySQL 5.6 comparatively to 5.5. Should be running on Friday 25.
  • Is it Apache or TomCat? Casey has to explore what is the best. CNR will install Apache, and explore if TomCat can be also on the same machine.
