Geospatial Mapping

<p>As open source geospatial mapping toolkits and platforms continue to develop and mature, the developers of web portals using these solutions need to regularly review and revaluate their technology choices in order to stay up to date and provide the best possible experience and functionality to their users. We are currently undergoing such a refresh with our AuScope Discovery Portal, Virtual Geophysics Laboratory, and the AuScope 3D Geological Models Portal. The task of deciding which solutions to utilise as part of the upgrade process is not to be underestimated. Our main evaluation criteria include the ability to support commonly used map layer formats and web service protocols, support for 3D display capabilities, community size and activity, ease of adding custom display and scientific workflow / processing widgets, cost and benefits of integration with existing components and maintainability into the future. We are beginning a journey to update and integrate our portals’ functionality and will outline the decision process and conclusions of our investigations as well as the detailed evaluation of web based geospatial solutions against our functional and operational criteria.</p>

Abstract Summary Visualizing a network provides a concise and practical understanding of the information it represents. Open-source web-based libraries help accelerate the creation of biologically based networks and their use. ccNetViz is an open-source, high speed and lightweight JavaScript library for visualization of large and complex networks. It implements customization and analytical features for easy network interpretation. These features include edge and node animations, which illustrate the flow of information through a network as well as node statistics. Properties can be defined a priori or dynamically imported from models and simulations. ccNetViz is thus a network visualization library particularly suited for systems biology. Availability and implementation The ccNetViz library, demos and documentation are freely available at http://helikarlab.github.io/ccNetViz/. Supplementary information Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

ObjectiveAn intranet portal that combines cost-free, open-source software technology with easy set-up features can be beneficial for daily hospital processes. We describe the short-term adoption rates of a costless content management system (CMS) in the intranet of a tertiary Greek hospital.DesignDashboard statistics of our CMS platform were the implementation assessment of our system.ResultsIn a period of 10 months of running the software, the results indicate the employees overcame ‘Resistance to Change’ status. The average growth rate of end users who exploit the portal services is calculated as 2.73 every 3.3 months.ConclusionWe found our intranet web-based portal to be acceptable and helpful so far. Exploitation of an open-source CMS within the hospital intranet can influence healthcare management and the employees’ way of working as well.

Adaptive Visualization

Analyzing similarities and differences between biomolecular networks comparison through website intuitively could be a convenient and effective way for researchers. Although several network comparison visualization tools have been developed, none of them can be integrated into websites. In this paper, a web-based tool kit named dynamically adaptive Visualization of Biomolecular Network Comparison (Bio-NCV) is designed and developed. The proposed tool is based on Cytyoscape.js – a popular open-source library for analyzing and visualizing networks. Bio-NCV integrates arjor.js which including the Barnes-Hut algorithm and the Traer Physics library for processing in order to express the dynamically adaptive initialization. In addition, in order to maintain consistency, the counterparts in other networks will change while the nodes and edges in one of the compared networks change. Furthermore, Bio-NCV can deal with both directed and undirected graphs.
