Enquire 2006 features

• A first draft of how the gnowsis PIM could look like is shown in gnowsis_pim.jpg (see Attachments of this page)
• GUI features:
  • The Overview to the left is based on the PIM-Ontology; it shows:
    • Classes: e.g. Person, Project, Place, Topic
    • Instances: e.g. Leo, Dominik
    • Sub-Class relations between Classes: e.g. Project -> short-project
    • Part-of relations between Instances: e.g. SemWeb -> SemDesktop
  • The search provides two possibilities:
    • Gnowsis complete
    • Wikitology
  • The JList with resources consists of Documents / Resources that are about the selected class (e.g. gnowsis) and lists grouped (sorted) by whatever necessary (IMPORTANT: this are only pointers to the douments / resources!!):
    • Appointments
    • Emails
    • etc.
  • The Container shows the "hasContainer" relations
  • The relations that are shown consist only of PIM-Ontology classes and instances (no resources!!!) and describe relations to other concepts / topics
• Interaction features:
  • The Overview provides possibillities of adding / deleting / renaming classes subclasses and instances
  • The search (that embeds the browser in the window) is split up in two result classes: 1)Concepts 2)Resources
  • Wiki-Word and Wiki-Text can be edited
  • Resources can be added via drag 'n drop (auto-categorisation will be made) or via the linker's "link to concept"-button; in both cases the added resource should be focused after inserting. Furthermore can resources also be removed via delete
  • Containers can be added via drag 'n drop or datasource explorer. They also can be renamed or opended (exec).
  • Relations can be added via drag 'n drop
