Ralyx

Participant : Anne-Marie Vercoustre [ correspondant ] .

In the context of her involvment with the IST department at Inria, Anne-Marie Vercoustre has been leading the Ralyx project . The goal of the Ralyx project is to publish and exploit dynamically the annual INRIA activity reports. Ralyx is based on the Xyleme system, a native XML database. Thanks to Xyleme, pages and links are no longer static but computed on the fly into different, possibly transversal views. Ralyx is operational since February 2007.

The approach works very well but may be limited by the quality of the initial data. This brings us back to one of AxIS' objectives to control and increase the quality of document-based information systems.
