Gnowsis Project Structure - how does this all work together?

Each of this projects provides a certain Service to the gnowsis system. The gnowsis-server project itself has the core services, the enquire2006 includes the GUI, kaukoluwiki the wiki, sesame1 the web-interface. They are all started and debugged using the gnowsis project. Each project contains a services directory in which a semantic desktop application (similar to a web application in a servlet container) is placed.

In the gnowsis project you find the scripts and jarfiles that start the system. Most of the code is in the gnowsis-server project and the important gui components are in enquire2006

If you have been developing or using gnowsis before, you should delete or backup the .gnowsis-beta directory you find in your home directory. More on this directory: DotGnowsis

File Structure

The gnowsis project(s) are re-structured for the beta and will then hopefully remain as suggested here:

gnowsis

launcher of gnowsis, starts the gnowsis-server.

gnowsis-server

svn: /gnowsis-server

The core server and core services.

Features

• org.gnogno.api - api interfaces for: Linker, Annotator, Browser!
• org.gnowsis.client - command line client and programming client (connects via http to gnowsis)
• org.gnowsis.config - configuration GUI.
• org.gnowsis.data - data integration code (not aperture)
• org.gnowsis.installer - installation procedures
• org.gnowsis.ontmanager - managing external rdf(s) ontologies
• org.gnowsis.pimo - managing the personal information model. Also the tagging functionality
• org.gnowsis.platform - operating system integration (shellexecute, etc)
• org.gnowsis.repository - storage of data via sesame2. Access sesame2 via Jena Models
• org.gnowsis.search - indexing, crawling and searching. Fulltext search and SPARQL search
• org.gnowsis.server - starting the server framework via EPOSWorkspace (DFKI dependency)
• org.gnowsis.update - detect version updates and change config/data
• org.gnowsis.uriqa - uriqa server support
• org.gnowsis.util - utilities (many!)
• org.gnowsis.vocabulary - our vocabularies

Depends on

• gnogno-comp - the gnogno gui components
• aperture - data extraction
