The COSMOS Data Visualization framework aims to provide value by building a standards based integration infrastructure that provides access to two dimensions of the COSMOS management architecture, COSMOS Data Collection and COSMOS Resource Modeling. COSMOS Data Visualization provides a well defined set of service interface types that facilitate the exploration of the COSMOS Resource Modeling's repository of models and the retrieval of the COSMOS Data Collection's repository of state, event, and performance information. The model repository is semantically linked to the information in the monitor data repository. This relationship, which is managed in SML through the Resouce Modeling component, is used to connect the exploration of the model with data that has been collected.

The initial focus of the COSMOS Data Visualization framework is on three sets of service interface types:
+
*Repository path: /cvsroot/technology
−
* The lowest-level service interface types deliver a structured view of the underlying data.
+
*Connection Type: pserver
−
* The second set of service interface types is focused on integrating higher-level visualizations of the retrieved information.
+
*User: anonymous
−
* The third set of service interface types is focused on serving a variety of user interface mechanisms.
+
*Module path:  org.eclipse.cosmos/doc/org.eclipse.cosmos.doc.architecture/data-visualization
 +
*Document file: COSMOS-DataVisualizationDesign.html

The COSMOS Data Visualization framework will provide a comprehensive set of service interface types at each of these three levels of abstraction. Each level offers an adoption point for implementers of management applications. The [[Image:Cosmos-gear.png]] icon is intended to designate these adoption points.

The COSMOS Data Visualization framework will also provide examples of implementations of management application components that adopt the service interface types. These are the examples:

This article presents the architecture and high-level design of the COSMOS Data Visualization Component.

COSMOS 0.4 Data Visualization Design Document

The design document has been moved to CVS undergoing iterative updates. Currently CVS was deemed as the best medium to update this document. After careful review this document will be finalized and ready to be published at which time the wiki page will contain the design document.

The CVS information to get the design document is as follows:

  • Host: dev.eclipse.org
  • Repository path: /cvsroot/technology
  • Connection Type: pserver
  • User: anonymous
  • Module path: org.eclipse.cosmos/doc/org.eclipse.cosmos.doc.architecture/data-visualization
  • Document file: COSMOS-DataVisualizationDesign.html

You can directly download and view the document here, but the image links will be broken.

Compiling the COSMOS 0.4 Data Visualization UI

Follow the following steps to build the data visualization ui components.

  1. Download wtp 2.0 RC1 all in one driver (http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R2.0/S-2.0RC1-200705250432/wtp-S-2.0RC1-200705250432.zip).
  2. Import the following project set file here, . This will check out the code from cvs into your workspace. When prompted for a user id and password enter 'anonymous' for the id with a blank password.
  3. Make sure the org.eclipse.cosmos.dr.drs.service.handler compiles. You might have to edit the JRE System Library in the Java Build Path to point to the correct jdk. File:Jdkcompile.gif
  4. Repeat the above step for org.eclipse.cosmos.dr.gvs.views and org.eclipse.cosmos.dr.ps.common.
