Last week:
- wrote a oai2rdf RDFizer to harvest a OAI-PMH compliant repository
and RDFize the results.
- RDFized all dspace.mit.edu content (~19K records)
- wrote an marcmods2rdf RDFizer to convert MARC (in Z39/2 format) to
MARC/XML or to MODS/XML (using the official LOC XSLT transformation) or
to MODS/RDF
- tested on the 1.2 million MARC records that the MIT library has
- wrote an XSLT stylesheet to convert MODS/XML into MODS/RDF/XML
(should be done today)
- wrote an ontology for MODS in N3 (should be done today with the
stylesheet)
- finished the first phase (indexing) of Gadget 2.0, which now uses
BerkeleyDB for storing the results instead of keeping them in memory.
Trial test results in amazing performance.
- started working on phase 2 of Gadget 2.0 (presentation) which is
going to be a web application to present/explore the results of the
indexing phase.
- started moving stuff over to use Maven2 as the framework of choice,
especially now that there is a nice eclipse plugin.
This week:
- finish the mardmods2rdf work
- convert all the library MARC records into RDF
- write the ocw2rdf RDFizer to convert MIT OpenCourseWare's metadata
from IEEE LOM to RDF
- continue to work on Gadget 2.0 web interface
