Technical Environment
This product uses the following technical components which have been derived from the current NCICB Technology Stack.
Client Interface |
Protege client is java based and provides a complete editing environment for Protege databases, called ontologies. It uses a plugin architecture to support extensions, called Tabs. For example, the NCI Edit Tab, Workflow, Changes, and Prompt, are examples of plugin tabs. |
Java 1.5.x |
Application Server |
Protege server is an RMI-based server that runs against any relational database, in our case MySQL |
Database Server |
MySQL |
Operating System |
Any OS supporting Java, Windows, Linux OS X |
[caCore:Other] |
Portable ANSI-SQL compliant relational schemas |
Product Dependencies
This release is dependent on the caCORE components or products documented in the CORE Product Dependency Matrix.
[Provide additional explanation as applicable. For example, "The EVS vocabulary systems are used by the Java client to retrieve and validate concept information for naming and defining meanings."]
Out of Scope Items
Items that are out of scope were evaluated as part of the initial scoping activities for this release, and subsequently not included in the final approved scope. These items are also documented in the cumulative backlog of requirements found on the product GForge site. They include out-of-scope functional requirements (enhancements or new features), bug fixes, non-functional requirements, and general support activities.
