The Tufts Visual Understanding Environment (VUE) OSIDs

This package includes source code and javadoc for implementations of the following OKI Open Service Interface Definitions (OSIDs):

• edu.tufts.oki.authentication (LDAP)
• edu.tufts.oki.authorization (non-persistent)
• edu.tufts.oki.localFiling
• edu.tufts.oki.remoteFiling (FTP)
• org.nolaria.oki.shared
• org.nolaria.oki.dr (FTP)

VUE is a concept mapping application which allows resources to be associated with concept nodes. These resources can be drawn from a variety of sources including local and remote filing systems, Google searches, and the Tufts Digital Library via an implementation of osid.digitalrepository which interfaces to the Fedora Digital Repository system (not included in this package).

These implementations are offered as is. Tufts code is protected under the terms of the Mozilla License (see LICENSE.TXT). Nolaria code is copyright (c) 2004 by Mark J. Norton and is offered under the MIT Open Source License. Code, including documentation, can be downloaded from,
