caBIG®LexEVS 5.0 Boot Camp

The caBIG® LexEVS 5.0 Developer Boot Camp was held November 17th, 18th, and 19th, 2009, at the NCI CBIIT Training facility in Rockville, Md. This intermediate/ advanced level hands-on training session focused on understanding the terminology model as well as, how to use the LexEVS API in local, distributed, and grid environments to develop efficient LexEVS-aware services and applications. There was a specific focus for those migrating from EVS 3.x/LexEVS 4.x to LexEVS 5.0. Please see LexEVS 5.0 Boot Camp for more information.

What's new

LexEVS 5.0 represents the next generation of NCI Enterprise Vocabulary Services. In this release, the LexBIG Java API and LexGrid model become the strategic EVS interfaces, replacing the legacy EVS API and the EVS 3.2 model.

...

  • The unified design of LexEVS 5.0 no longer supports the EVS Model and EVS API. Both have been completely replaced with LexEVS components. The benefit of this design is migration to a more heterogeneous code base which streamlines the API.
