I just stumbled across a rather neat Java-based query demo on the SHOE/PARKA site. http://www.cs.umd.edu/projects/plus/SHOE/binpiq.html (older binary-relations) http://www.cs.umd.edu/projects/plus/SHOE/piq.html (new n-ary relation) The two versions of the applet correspond to SHOE's evolution from an RDF-like binary relations model to a full n-ary relations approach. The Java applet demo allows the graphical creation of queries. Basically it's a simple visual graph editor with the ability to flag each node in the graph as a variable. The query structure can then be sent to a server which responds with a result-set that can also be viewed in terms of the query graph. For the Java-averse, there are screenshots, http://www.cs.umd.edu/projects/plus/SHOE/images/plusquery.gif http://www.cs.umd.edu/projects/plus/SHOE/images/pubquery.gif (rounded nodes represent variables in these displays) DanReceived on Friday, 26 May 2000 08:33:19 UTC
