    1 <h1>Semantic Data Access by Aduna &amp; DFKI <br> 
    2 </h1> 
    3 To extract data and fulltext from various datasources and store them in 
    4 systems like gnowsis or Aduna Metadata Server.<br> 
    5 <h2>Sourceforge Project</h2> 
    6 Administrators: Christiaan Fluit &amp; Leo Sauermann<br> 
    7 Source Code: Interfaces and standard implementations of the SeDAF<br> 
    8 <br> 
    9 The source will contain all relevant information about semantic data 
    10 extraction, everything that is needed to get starting with a fulltext 
    11 and metadata extraction framework. Our intent is that developers can 
    12 download a single distribution file with a fully working environment, 
    13 that also includes adapter and extractor implementations. Developers 
    14 can use this package to fill their lucene-based applications or other 
    15 data stores.<br> 
    16 <br> 
    17 The features of the framework will be:<br> 
    18 <ul> 
    19   <li>easy to use: easy to learn, easy to code, easy to deploy in 
    20 industrial projects<br> 
    21   </li> 
    22   <li>Extract fulltext from many common file formats and information 
    23 systems like IMAP email servers</li> 
    24   <li>Extract metadata like author, date, subject and more from the 
    25 data sources</li> 
    26   <li>open the data objects for viewing<br> 
    27   </li> 
    28   <li>Fully configurable framework, storing and editing config files is 
    29 done through a SWING gui.</li> 
    30   <li>Pluggable architecture: can be easily extended, can be easily 
    31 integrated to other projects. <br> 
    32   </li> 
    33   <li>Architecture based on industry standard OSGI</li> 
    34   <li>Compatible with RDF, but not solely based on it</li> 
    35 </ul> 
    36 Components in the framework are:<br> 
    37 <ul> 
    38   <li>DataSource Interface</li> 
    39   <li>TextExtractor Interface</li> 
    40   <li>DataSource implementation for Filesystem</li> 
    41   <li>DataSource implementation for IMAP mail servers</li> 
    42   <li>TextExtractor implementation for everything we know: PDF, Word, 
    43 Fulltext, excel</li> 
    44   <li>OSGI bindings and connector code<br> 
    45   </li> 
    46   <li>Configuration gui</li> 
    47   <li>Sample appication showing how to use it, with gui (=either 
    48 Autofocus or Sesame or Gnowsis)</li> 
    49   <li>Metadata format description (RDFS schema) and example file for 
    50 the metadata<br> 
    51   </li> 
    52 </ul> 
    53 Right from the beginning we will support the following file types:<br> 
    54 <ul> 
    55   <li>Plain text</li> 
    56   <li>HTML</li> 
    57   <li>XML</li> 
    58   <li>PDF (Portable Document Format)</li> 
    59   <li>RTF (Rich Text Format)</li> 
    60   <li>Microsoft Word 97+</li> 
    61   <li>Microsoft Excel 97+</li> 
    62   <li>Microsoft Powerpoint 97+</li> 
    63   <li>Microsoft Works</li> 
    64   <li>OpenOffice 1.0+: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw</li> 
    65   <li>StarOffice 6.0+: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw</li> 
    66   <li>WordPerfect 5.x</li> 
    67   <li>Emails</li> 
    68   <li>IMAP Servers</li>

    72 The following third party libraries have helped making the metadata 
    73 framework<br> 
    74 the success that it is. These freely available libraries deserve<br> 
    75 a lot of credit for that, and we highly recommend them to others<br>
