Work Completed

  • MAEviz
    • Answered questions about MAEviz analysis plug-ins that the University of West Indies people had
    • Tested MAEviz client with the maeviz.ncsa.uiuc.edu server after it was moved by Rob to make sure clients could still obtain HAZUS data and the region of interest, all tests passed.
  • KISTI
    • Requested VM to support KISTI tupelo server, it now just needs to be configured with Tupelo.
    • Updated KISTI wiki documentation and spec'd out some beans to fit our needs. Joe reviewed it and we need to do some more work before we can work on the ontology.
  • CyberIntegrator
    • Met with Terry et al to discuss my CI activities via skype, based on this discussion I will test ContextServer with Medici and finalize the ContextServer work so we can push out a new build of Cyberintegrator that uses the ContextServer.
    • Worked on building the ContextServer. I found a problem with the Tupelo Jena plug-in build properties that caused a runtime problem for the Context Server. Rob checked in my fix and the ContextServer product files (Headless & GUI) now properly export and run. I also removed some unnecessary UI contributions by Eclipse to clean up the UI. The next step is to get Buckminster to build the ContextServer so we can add this to the Jenkins build server and get this built for use with Cyberintegrator. I have started this process and intend to finish it the week of April 8th. I still need to continue testing Cyberintegrator to complete the transition away from ContextBeanUtil. There is at least 1 or 2 minor issues where information that ContextBeanUtil provided need to be provided by the Workflow singleton.
  • Medici
    • Tested Medici with the ContextServer and found a few bugs with Medici. I worked on and resolved MMDB-1144, connection refused connecting to the context server. I also noticed that when changing context servers, there was the potential to throw error messages that a bean could not be found. This is because we save state with Medici. We should probably include additional information with the error messages to let users know that the problem is not really an issue if they are switching contexts. This might even show up if something gets deleted by another desktop client or in the web client between another users desktop sessions. I have filed the issue as MMDB-1145 as something we should look at.
    • Worked on and Resolved MMDB-1080, after clicking on hyperlinked tag in desktop client the gallery view may not update properly. This is fixed.
    • Added an improvement idea, MMDB-1146, login screen should remember multiple servers using a combo box. This would be useful when switching between contexts and not always having to re-enter server URLs.

Work Planned

  • KISTI
    • Update KISTI architecture documentation for version 2.0 so that we can get it reviewed and start working on the ontology
    • Request VM to support KISTI tupelo server
  • CyberIntegrator/Medici
    • Meet with Terry, Joe & Rob to discuss my CI activities on March 23, 2011 at 2pm.
    • Work on desktop issues for the 1.2 release.
    • Work on the ContextServer and any issues Cyberintegrator has with it. Add the pieces to get Buckminster building these products.

This status report covers the week of March 25th and April 1st. I was on vacation March 28, 29 and 30th so I did not do a report for the week of the 25th as usual. These weeks went as planned. Some of this work that is unfinished will continue the week of April 8th.
