iPG2P PhytoBisque
July 2, 2010; 10am PDT

Present: Edgar, Logan, Kris, Karla, Matt, Dmitry, B.S. Manjunath

Notes/Agenda:

  • Integrating Bisque into iPlant Collaborative
    • 2 layers of services that public can interact with
      • software layer
      • iPlant DE sits on top of services and wraps up in nice layer
  • Bisque deployment easy on backend then tackle engineering principles
  • Mission critical dependencies:
    • look carefully at what choice
    • what is the infrastructure at iPlant? We can’t replicate it here so can we build something
    • wants to know what’s on horizon?
  • sooner start collaboration with iPlant, sooner get credentials
  • Project will stay independent but there will be very close collaborations with the iPlant Development Team
  • iPlant is interested in looking for people to bring own methods/tool into iPlant Collaborative
    • via iPlant incubator projects
      • need to tightly enumerate what we want to do
  • With Bisque:
    • finish off 04 services
    • could deploy with 04 at iPlant
    • 05 has plugin for Shibboleth
      • Turbogears I has plugin and Turbo 2 might now
    • use 04 for 6 months (and Edgar too)
  • one strategy is to test out 04 to make sure iPlant has everything needed
    • think about additional use cases and algorithm development
  • part of goal is to revamp Bisque API
  • Could start deployment of 04 just to get feet wet but no real development until after September
  • would like to see this happen as bring modular, it should make it easier for biologist with images and CS with algorithms to meet up
  • Swap out domain specific algorithm, if iPlant can help do the hot swap
  • Could think about joint publication
  • From iPlant – get someone to work within, iPlant to set up Bisque instance
  • End goal: templated way of doing QTL analysis using Bisque
