Resource Descriptor Framework
by Ben Coman 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

Is there much being done with Resource Description Framework in Squeak/Pharo? I have some RDF data files that I need to load for my masters project and am seeking advice on how to approach this. I am only just learning about RDF for the first time. For anyone else interested the best short overview I found so far is [ http://logicerror.com/semanticWeb-webdev ] Apparently it this is a Simplified RDF Syntax as described at [ http://www.langdale.com.au/CIMXML/PSModelExchange.pdf ] A data file looks like like this... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:cim="http://iec.ch/TC57/2007/CIM-schema-cim12#"> <cim:ACLineSegment rdf:ID="_7814201"> <cim:Conductor.length>95</cim:Conductor.length> <cim:IdentifiedObject.name>AMHE400MARCLINE</cim:IdentifiedObject.name> <cim:ConductingEquipment.BaseVoltage rdf:resource="#_400000302"/> <cim:Equipment.MemberOf_EquipmentContainer rdf:resource="#_487038201"/> </cim:ACLineSegment> The most obvious project on Squeaksource is Rakaiko [a] which says "RDF is an essential part of the new web technologies and a fundamental layer of the semantic Web 2.0 [...] This API, compliant with the W3C RDF specification will allow a developer to handle an RDF graph in its various forms (RDF/XML, N3, abstract graph). In other words, it would be the Squeak equivalent of the Jena Java RDF API." However there has been no activity on Rakaiko since 2007 and there is no apparent documentation. Has anyone used this and/or is this abandoned? Page 20 of "ESUG 2006 Welcome" mentions a "RDF Framework for Smalltalk." Did anything come of this? Alternatively I could fake it and learn just how to parse the XML directly and manually translate it into the class model. (It seems processing an a RDF Schema might be able to automatically create the class definition as well as the instance creation ) There is PetitXML, which however is not included by ConfigurationOfPetitParser.24 loaded on Moose 4.6. What is the status of PetitXML ? Also Moose 4.6 has XML-Parser. Which of XML-Parser or PetitXML would be the better approach ? I've watched http://www.tudorgirba.com/blog/simple-xml-browser-with-glamour but not sure whether than will help me actually load the data into a model. You opinion of these various approaches would be appreciated, and of course pointers to any examples/documentation.

Two questions on SmallDude for code duplication in Moose: - What is a multiplication? - How can I create a multiplication constellation visu ( http://www.themoosebook.org/book/externals/visualizations/multiplication-co… )? I have an external tool that calculates duplication information (lines numbers, dupl. classes, code) and I am looking to see if can use dude to visualize this information. thanx, usman

I once created a simple model for a distributed ram-based OLAP system. That had independent nodes, connected to a network with known delay and speed, and simple read-only queries. Queries would just take some space, move (and split-join) from node to node and increase their timestamps. For a sql database just start adding complex queries, write locks, limited buffer sizes, cpu cores & caching and disks... Not so easy. Stephan

load testing a database

Hi, Do you happen to know methods to approach the problem of testing the capacity of an application to work with an SQL database? In particular, I am interested in simulating concurrent requests towards this database that would resemble the interaction coming from the application.

Re: broken tests :)

Hi Nicolas, Thanks a lot. I looked quickly into this. There is at least a simple problem: you are calling queryAllOutgoingDependencies, but this method does not exist anymore. I guess we should replace this with queryAllOutgoingAssociations. Is this due to a wrongly published refactoring?
