[ontolog-forum] Announcing the Open Source Samian Platform

[Cameron Ross <cross@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like to announce that Kojeware has initiated a new open source project committed to developing software infrastructure and tools for semantic systems based on Common Logic.  The project is called the Samian Platform and can be accessed here: http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/samian-platform.

Kojeware has seeded the Samian Platform with two Java-based modules.  The first module is a CLIF parser that is (hopefully) compliant with the CL standard.  This module can parse arbitrary CLIF texts and generate a CL Abstract Syntax Tree (CL-AST) representation of the text.  The parser can also be used to validate CLIF text syntax.  The second module provides an object-oriented representation of the Common Logic Abstract Syntax (CLAS).  This module includes a component to translate the contents of the CL-AST into its CLAS representation.  The CLAS module also includes  a mechanism that you can hook into to walk the CLAS model and execute custom algorithms that operate over the model.

The current codebase includes a fairly extensive test harness and an automated build process. Detailed documentation for the project is coming soon.  Samian Platform code is released under the Eclipse Public License 1.0  which promotes use within both open source and commercial systems.  Samian Platform content is released under the Creative Commons 3.0 BY-SA license.

Please have a look and let me know what you think!

Cheers,

Cameron Ross
