Feature Requests
21716 - Add data from MRSAT file to NCI Meta data

21719 - Load MRRANK data for NCI Meta
21721 - Add some additional data from MRHIER

21723 - Add more data from MRDEF file for NCI Meta
21724 - Add data from MRCONSO file to NCI Meta data
21849 - Add an algorithm for supporting case-insensitive substring search.
21850 - Add a search algorithm for supporting case-insensitive substring search with an additional spelling-error tolerant feature.
21879 - Improve error messages (e.g., CNS.resolve, CNS.resolveToList, CNG.resolveToList)
21881 - Improve ResolvedConceptReferencesIterator performance by reducing client-server network traffic in distributed mode.
21882 - LexEVS 5.1 Value Domain Support
21976 - Improve LexEVS Loading Framework
21980 - Optimize Lucene code to improve search performance
21982 - Implement a server side sort to improve performance
22006 - General SQL optimization
22565 - Add special character search
22893 - Add asserted relations into the transitive table
23053 - Load TUI as a Property in UMLS loader
23071 - Allow multiple CUI Properties per UMLS Entity
Important Remaining Issues / Limitations
- Value Domain (CTS 2 Value Set) support in the 5.1 release is not fully implemented and is offered as a capability that developers of LexEVS dependent applications and services can use to familiarize themselves with value domains in a non-production setting. Production use of Value Domain fuctionality should be delayed until the release of the 6.0 build of LexEVS.
- LexBIGServiceConvenienceMethods in the 5.1 release are not all adapted for use in distributed mode and should not be attempted to be used distributed. These include getHierarchyOrphanedConcepts(), getHierarchyLevelNextCount(), getHierarchyLevelPrevCount(), addEntityLuceneIndexes(), removeEntityLuceneIndexes(), modifyEntityLuceneIndexes().
