Progress Report August 22, 2007

I am working on the consistency model of our system via implementing consistency model, consistency protocol, and update propagation for our system. We are going to automate the safe operations in the system, and if it is not safe then we are going to report it to the user to decide what to do. Users are going to be able to define "get latest updates" or "let me choose" options in the property file.

I have completed working on the uniqueness of our digital entities in the system. To do so, I am using unique id generator( 128 bit) for each different digital entity at the time of the entry into the system.

I am also working on the consistency model of our system via implementing consistency model, consistency protocol, and push/pull method for update propagation for our system.

Furthermore, I have been reading articles and papers about the Web 2.0 technology, and consistency models in asynchronous collaboration.

I have completed testing the periodic updates tool with various types of datasets. It is working without problem so far. I have fixed all the bugs that I faced with during the test period.

The new updates for the SRG project can be accessed from the running developer instance of the SRG at: http://gf6.ucs.indiana.edu:58060/SRGrid/login.jsp whereas the running demo instance of the SRG can be accessed at: http://gf6.ucs.indiana.edu:58080/SRGrid/login.jsp.

I am also working on the uniqueness of our digital entities in the system. I have been designing a way to make each different digital entity unique. To do so, I am planning to use unique id generator( 128 bit) for each different digital entity at the time of the entry into the system.

Furthermore, I have been reading articles and papers about the Web 2.0 technology, and consistency model in asynchronous collaboration.
