Ron, thanks for the invitation.
I take it all I need to submit by September 17 is an abstract, and if
selected, I should then submit the full article by some later date, am
I right?
I am interested in writing about the evolution of the ISIS-DM project
and tools after my initial paper about it, which you can find here:
http://reddes.bvsalud.org/projects/isisnbp/wiki/ISIS-DM
http://reddes.bvsalud.org/projects/isisnbp/wiki/Tools
ISIS-DM is an API to ease the migration of legacy ISIS databases to
modern document databases such as CouchDB or MongoDB or semistructured
databases such as Amazon SimpleDB and Google Datastore. The isis2json
tool I am using to explore the LILACS bibliographic database to
eventually migrate it to CouchDB or MongoDB.
Cheers,
Luciano
