AgileWiki Community

Building Web 3.0

Extending the web to include home-based servers and semantics are 2 of the themes of Web3.0. To this we should also add information fusion.

Latest Release

AW4 Release 17.5.0 on 7 February 2010

This is the latest release of our [LGPL] JQuery Webtop, integrated with AgileWiki4.

Of Interest

Scala Cake Pattern simplified for Java

Design for a Nettop.

CometD Desktop and XSLT

Rolonics in a Nutshell

A Question of Reasonableness

Why AgileWiki? Why a desktop?

AgileWiki is now under the LGPL license. Note that the LGPL only applies to the java code. Configuration files, resource files, scripts and .jsp files remain under the Common Public License.

A solution to ordering search results. Updated 27-Aug-09

Maven

Jetty 6

What's Next?

RTL and Language selection are finished for the webtop.

View names are now internationalized and view processing has been refactored for eventual use by the webtop. There is no longer a display for rolons, only a collection of applicable views. Response time is now much quicker, as there are no longer any large pages.

Processing logic has been refactored and error messages are now internationalized.

The test framework now supports the special requirements of resync messages.



Due April 2010: AgileWiki4

AgileWiki4 desktop demo, including windows.



Due April 2011: AgileWiki5

AgileWiki5 will be a production-ready application platform, a fully distributed and web-scalable nettop/netos.

AgileWiki5 will have a layered architecture, with improved access control using Scala.

Full multi-threading will be supported (opportunistic transactions), as will versioning.

As with AgileWiki4, the nettop will be comet-based, but with content generated using the Lift framework.
 

A Lesson Learned

AgileWiki5 started off with a great ambition--to support parallel transaction processing using opportunistic locking. This capability was nearly completed when a serious problem was found: the maximum number of transactions per second that could be processed was very low. A lot of the overhead needed to support parallel transaction processing has now been stripped out and we've seen the transaction rate increase almost four fold.

This does leave us with the issue of having to deal with reports while still supporting normal activity. This can be done [later] by limiting queries to near-current time. We would need to distinguish between instances of block elements which are current time (and subject to change) from instances which are for past-time queries and which would have their own cache operating independently of any transactions.

Currently this project has two thrusts: (1) development of version 5 and (2) development of the webtop, which is currently supported only by version 4. The real push is to progress version 5 far enough that we can begin integrating it with the webtop. But we have a ways to go before that happens.

Development of the AW5 Kernel is nearing completion and Alex has already started working on the AW5 Core. Still, there is a lot left to do in the Core Layer before we can get very far in integrating AW5 with the webtop.

The one thing which provides a great deal of motivation for AW5 is its simplicity, at least in comparison with AW4. Going forward, that is going to be quite significant.
