Architecture

Principle

Being able to take the best decision in order to maximize current ROI to offer to tomorrow the best conditions to innovate (vastest possibility space + best learned skills during the process).

Target systems

Anything that can connect to Seedea
- Seedea.Input list all the current possibilities

In order to maximize support we are testing all the configurations (hardware and software in a context) possible. Check Seedea.Testing to see how you can help bringing Seedea to your own configuration.

Current situation

Ranking	Path	Advantages over current situation	Disadvantages over current situation	Estimated time before being usable	Estimated hosting costs
0	~~pmWiki with recipes~~	~~N/A~~	~~N/A~~	~~0sec (for me at least)~~	~~free.fr=0/year~~ ~~2 DNS = 2x20e/year~~
1	pmWiki with homemade recipes	specialized, better understanding	more complexity	0sec (for me at least)	1 server 150e/year 1 DNS = 20e/year

See also Seedea.Input, Seedea.Output and of course Seedea.API.

Evolutionary path to decide

Ranking	Path	Advantages over current situation	Disadvantages over current situation	Estimated time before being usable	Estimated hosting costs
1	Semantic MediaWiki	Semantic ready, large active community, buzz word	more complex for the final users (opposed to pmWiki philosophy)	1 week after data schemas have been correctly eventually established based on templates	see HostingMatrix
2	Lisp wiki over GraphDB	Lisp community oriented to AI, Network data structure specific, facilitate transition to OpenCog	resources required, Lisp knowledge	1 month	see HostingMatrix
3	OpenCog instance	AI ready	Computing requirements	?	see HostingMatrix
4	distributed fullfledge platform	distributed cost, solid infrastructure, coherent with the whole model (a la fullydistp2p)	still state of the art research in P2P	?	PeerVM Dryad Swarm Single-system image including MOSIX distributed.net including GPGPU abilities

Possibilities

Wiki-layer abstraction
- See the dedicated page : Seedea.ArchitectureWikiLayer
Semantic Wiki (see SemWiki.org)
- Generate triples from any Web Application (including Wikis) with triplify.org (requires MySQL)
- Fours and Fives: OWL in Lisp!! by Sunil Mishra and the SVN of his own modification of CL-WIKI
- Category:Semantic wiki from semanticweb.org
- WikiMatrix - Compare them all
  - Warning : it does not include Cliki, CL-Wiki or any other Lisp based wiki (21/10/2008)
  - CLOVER (Lisp Semantic Wiki) by Sunil Mishra
GraphDB
- neo4j
- AllegroGraph
- HypergraphDB suggestions from OpenCog
- NoSQL conference coming to Boston, O'Reilly Radar February 2010
AI
- See directly the Seedea.AImatrix for comparisons
