This page is for people attending day 3 of the workshop to put down their ideas and volunteer to host a session on a topic or write some minutes of the meeting on the biodas wiki site, so we have a record of what was discussed and what the outcomes were or ideally some code to work with.

  • My current suggestion for the format would be to have the 1.6 spec and the DAS1/DAS2 merger topics discussed in the first 2 hrs of the day and be open to everybody. Then have groups split up into the remainder of the topics?

DAS 1.6 spec and where to go with the Registry

Host: Jonathan Warren and Andy Jenkinson Scretary: Jonathan Warren and Andy Jenkinson

DAS1/DAS2 merger

DAS writeback

Adapting Java DAS client libraries for alignment and PDB file retrieval for clients that dont use BioJava

Ajax das client/server library (allow DAS server discovery and retrieval on the browser page)

Graphical Representation of data

DAS interfaces to sequence analysis tools

BioSapiens ontology lookup

How to represent the ontology in DAS, e.g. JR Macias' "term" command DAS vs. ontologies, how and why This topic was suggeseted because I'd like to understand how 'ontologies' (in general) are implemented in DAS and how this relates to the feature annotation models in Chado or GFF3, for example. How should an annotator use an ontology? How should the use of an ontology be reflected in the client behaviour? What about DAS ontology servers (and the 'term' DAS command)? This topic dosn't really fit with the idea of a 'hackathon', but is a very interesting aspect of DAS. i.e.


Searching, Filters and tags

What are:

  • Ontodas
  • DAS Protein Ontology
  • Ontology Lookup Service
  • The BioSapians (feature type?) ontology
  • The ontology of 'input filters' from EMBRACE This is an effort by the EMBRACE project to define ontologies for use in registering web services in the EMBRACE registry and later in the BioCatalogue registry. The ontology will cover the terms used in EMBRACE servcies, including BioMart and EMBOSS - both of which already have well-defined terms which will be used to populate the ontology. This will be contributed to the OBO foundry (like the other ontologies used in DAS) and can be extended to cover algorithms to give a better description of a service, its inputs, parameters and outputs.
