Package it.unimi.dico.islab.idbs2.cloud Description

Contains all necessary classes to represent and manage a Cloud structure connected to the cloud database.

Usage as a Java object library

The main class of this package is the Cloud class, exposing methods for nodes and edges creation. In fact this class represents a graph (direct or indirect) where every node is a collection of resources (represented by an id and a prominence). Moreover, a label called essential is associated to every node, divided in two sets:

• Terms set: a list of terms (associated with a relevance value), representative for the node's resources.
• Keywords set: a list of keywords (associated with a relevance value), representative for the node's resources.

Usage as an Hibernate wrapper library

All represented classes are associated with an xml mapping file (contained in the same package) defining database mappings for Hibernate purposes. The subpackage session contains all necessary classes to manage the database session (take a look at the package description for more information).

The document config/cloudDatabaseConfiguration.xml contains the database connection paremeters (such as URL, database name and database type).
