Bug #1915
openDefine a published interface for a semantic search service
0%
Description
The purpose of this work is to define a generic api for "smart" search, which
implementation(s) will conform to. Each api operation will require both (1) a
public interface that external services will interface with (to call the desired
function), and (2) a description of the required backend information-storage
operations necessary to execute the desired functions. For example, this might
include the operation 'getObjectLSIDList(ObjectType) : ObjectLSIDList' that when
given an object type (such as "actor" or "dataset") will return all the LSIDs
for objects stored in the target backend repository.

Not clear on status of this. Originally intended to allow both Kepler and
non-kepler uses of the semantic search services. Need bowers to update status.
