Updates

• North Texas
  • waiting for first extract from faculty information system
  • exploring Web of Science feed for publications data, maybe Zotero
  • modifying JDBC Fetch
  • putting together a document on ontology/mapping based on a learning VIVO ontology using Univ of Manchester ontology browser and VUE (http://vue.tufts.edu/ ), a concept and content mapping application from Tufts recommended by Nicholas

• Florida
  • working image harvest from University ID card source (looks good)
  • migrating to VIVO 1.3 on Amazon EC2
  • considering hiring student workers putting together a manual for moving data from CVs/vitas to VIVO

• Weill Cornell
  • focused on PubMed harvester, 50% ~= 15k pubs, excluding another 15-20k pubs – interested in using WoS or Scopus
  • how to map primary and secondary affiliations, Catalyst has an interesting approach, email regarding this on old ontology list on UF server (archives should be public at http://lists.ufl.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=VIVO_ONTOLOGY-L may require an account)

• Wisconsin
  • trying to sort out some issues with the pubmed harvest in terms of author matching

• Colorado
  • improved handling for non campus/VPN access (VIVO instance campus only for now)

Special Topics

Ontology call and mailing lists:

• bi-weekly Ontology Calls now open to public
• new ontology list http://sourceforge.net/p/vivo/sfx-list/
• old archives https://lists.ufl.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=VIVO_ONTOLOGY-L (login required)

Ideas discussed:

• adopting iCal (.ics) event data format to import from other calendars
  • having an automated scraper that looks for .ics files (might be a separate tool) and imports and disambiguates+links faculty names would be neat
• central wiki page listing production environments for various VIVO institutions
  • USDA's Simon Liu has a How – Environment slide listing their VIVO setup, e.g.:

    • Physical server
    - HP DL580 + 4 x 8-cores processors + 256 GB memory + VMWare vSphere ESX 4.1
    • Virtual server
    - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7 + 32GB Memory + 60GB Disk Space + 4 x 2GHZ Intel Zeon processors
    • Software
    - VIVO 1.2.1 + Apache HTTP Server 2.2 + Apache Tomcat 6 + Apache ANT 1.8.2 + MySQL 5.5
