Agenda: NCBC Joint Working Group Meeting

Top page of SDIWG web site

Notes

Friday February 22, 2008: 2:30 -- 3:30 PM EST
Please contact Peter Lyster for information Peter Lyster
SDIWG Meetings Page
Save the date for the next SDWIG tcon/Connect, three months from now: Friday May 16, 2008

Tcon DRAFT Agenda

  • Roll Call/Note-taker (Henry Chueh) (5 min)
  • Minutes from most recent SDIWG tcon Nov 16, 2007 (5 min)
  • NCBC All Hands Meeting, August 13-15, 2008. Planning & Brainstorm discussion (Peter, Karin, All)
  • Status check on three working groups: Biositemaps Resourceome, Scientific Ontologies, NCBC Driving Biological Projects Interactions and Impact
  • Demo on Biomedical Resource Ontology (see BRO Requirements document) (Daniel Rubin). The demo will describe a stable development environment for the BRO and repository in BioPortal. This is a key component of the Biositemaps effort.
    • Overview of white paper (‘the biositemaps concept’) (Daniel, Ivo, Peter)
    • Overview of (i) collaborative development environment for BRO and (ii) BioPortal repository of BRO (how is BRO accessed through API?) (Daniel)
    • Overview of how iTools accesses the current corpus of three proto-biositemaps (google”filtetype:xml biositemap”). (Ivo)
    • Overview of plan for next 2 to 4 months (Peter)
      • (1) In the next two months NCBO develops a stable platform for content development and content repository in bioportal relating to the resource ontology, culminating in ½ to 1 day tcon with authorized seven Center reps to finalize v1.0 resource ontology (I may add rep from NITRC and NIF, Bill Bug). NCBO is generating and executing the plan for the ‘stable platform’
      • (2) After that Lyster contacts each PI and get personal commitment to create biositemaps.xml content on their web sites.
  • Upcoming meetings: AMIA translational, Zac, ...
  • Next 2 meeting date (Friday May 16 2:30 PM ET and three months after that)
  • Questions/Information Sharing

    • Daniel will put the current BRO on a Stanford gforge where it can be used by the NCBC SDIWG contacts to agree on a common BRO.
    • Daniel will write (and insert into the minutes) a brief description for immediate conversion from biositemaps based on xml to biositemaps based on owl.
  • Go over dates for next year's meetings:

Action Items

  • Convert Biositemaps method to owl
