- Ia.LexEVS Architecture
Course objectives are to define the architecture components that are new in 5.0 and/or replace older components and discuss the architecture components that make up the local, distributed and grid environments
- Ib.LexGrid Model
Course objectives are to understand the core structure and relations of the LexGrid Data Model and the LexBIG Service models; define the purpose of the LexBIG model in relation to the LexGrid model and the LexEVS API; discuss the model elements that are new in 2009 and/or changes from the previous model(s) and understand how those changes may affect legacy program implementation.
- IIa.Loader Mapping
Course objective is to discuss how native format content is loaded into LexEVS
- IIb.LexEVS API
Course objectives are to identify the different levels of the API and how to utilize them (core services, extensions, loaders, convenience methods, GUI); differentiate between the LexEVS environments and to identify which environment meets the user's needs (local, distributed, grid)
- IIIa.Local LexEVS
Course objectives are to discuss the LexEVS API in a local environment; install and configure LexEVS for the local environment; perform local code implementation exercises; utilize LexEVS loader technology and to demonstrate the use of the lbGUI for loading and code implementation.
