• PMD 2.4.5 installed in the CDK 1.2.x branch

    Today I installed PMD 4.2.5 in the CDK 1.2.x branch which contains mostly bug fixes compared to the 4.2.2 version we had earlier. Several of these include false positives: warnings which were not really problems, but tests going bad.

  • SPARQL end points, Jena and bif:contains

    I have been having fun with SPARQL in Bioclipse for a while now, and blogged at several occasions:

  • NMRShiftDB RDF #3: Bio2RDF

    My might have seen my efforts to convert the NMRShiftDB data into RDF:

  • Where are the CDK 1.3.1 and 1.2.4 releases ?!?

    You might be wondering what is keeping the CDK 1.3.1 and 1.2.4 releases. And right you are. When we look at Supernightly, we get a clue (BTW, I hope the EBI nodes will join soon too):

  • VR.se funded research to be OA as of 2010

  • Keeping my Bioclipse repositories in sync with upstream

    Bioclipse is now split up over several Git repositories (and some additional stuff in even more repositories). This has all to do with each repository now having one person acting as point-of-access. This means that I have several repositories checked out, which I need to keep synchronized. Now, I am pretty sure there are many solutions (and suggestions very welcome!), but this is the Bash script I have just written to give me an overview of the state of my repositories, hoping it may be useful to others too:

  • CDK Molecules in RDF

    Yesterday, I finally got around to starting a branch on adding RDF support to the CDK; in particular, write the CDK data model ontology in OWL and serialization to and from RDF using the ontology. The framework is now set up, but I have yet to formalize all bits and pieces of the CDK data model in classes and properties. Just as a preview, here is what a very basic bit of CDK model in RDF looks like (N3 format):
