These are some basic references for the underlying technology used to build Meandre. Understanding the underlying technology use will help Meandre developers to better understand the design decision that lead to the current Meandre implementation in Java.
- JENA: Semantic web Java package documentation can be found at http://jena.sourceforge.net/
. - Jetty: Web-app server documentation can be found at http://www.mortbay.org/.
- Apache Derby: A 100% Java-based relational DB (http://db.apache.org/derby/). The default out of the box Meandre server is configure to use Derby as the storage facility via JENA. Other back end storage implementations for Meandre are available via JENA---see http://jena.sourceforge.net/DB/. Information about how to change the backend storage for Meandre can be found at [Configuring the back end storage].
- JUnit: Test driven development (http://www.junit.org/). A simple introductory example can be found here (Meandre uses JUnit 4).
