Need some help

[Charuka Jayarathna <ch...@gmail.com>]

Dear all,

I am a Masters student in Georgia State University, and hope to work
on my Theses with some contribution to Tuscany. My adviser is fine
with my suggestion to take over a Tuscany project and work on that as
for my theses. He advises me to take over a project which has enough
intellectual contribution as well as it should be a novel idea
resulting a publishable paper at the end. I appreciate if you can help
me finding some potential areas having above requirements fulfilled.

Thank you
Charuka

Hi Charuka,

I contributed the LDAP DAS a while back.  It knows how to create a ApacheDS schema dynamically based on metadata on the SDO Objects (EMF objects really) and store, retrieve, delete DataGraph instances.  

There's more work needed in the areas of:

Querying
========================================
SQL queries would have to be converted to
JNDI queries, since LDAP works with JNDI.

Also as it is right now if someone attempts
to load an Object in a graph, that objects 
children are also automatically loaded.

So it needs to have proxy references established
that will automatically fetch these children if 
the client wants to lazy load them.
========================================

Interface / API
========================================
A API layer that matches Tuscany's RDB DAS 
needs to wrap the current API.
========================================

Support for Tuscany SDO
========================================
I used the EMF API to develop the initial
as is verison.  Ideally the DAS would work
the same with both Tuscany SDO Objects and
EMF SDO Objects.
========================================

So those are just a few areas that need work.  Please let me know if this is something of interest, and I'll do my best to provide further support.

Cheers,
- Ole

+1 to the SCA and PHP integration.  If you're interested, I would be
more than happy to help smooth the way with the associated SCA_SDO
project on PECL (http://pecl.php.net/package/SCA_SDO).

There was a proposal for SCA and PHP integration.  It was added
quite late and I don't believe anyone has taken it on.  Is this
of any possible interest?

Hi Charuka, welcome to Tuscany!

We'd love to have you work with us on a Tuscany project. As it happens we
went through a process a couple of months ago to come up with project ideas
for Google Summer of Code this year. See the list we came up with here [1]
as a starting point. Some of these projects are already being done by GSoC
students. See the selected project proposals on this page [2]. It's probably
not a good idea to take on one that is already being done.

What we need is a new page listing all the current project ideas we have
that people aren't working on. Luciano may have done this already and I'm
sure he will point us to it if he has. If not this is just the kind of
motivation we need to go and create one ;-)

I'm sure we can come up with lots of other ideas so take a look at the list
that's there and I'm sure people will post with new things here in due
course.

Regards

Simon
