Higgins 2.0 is the new code base to implement that nice picture on our home page.

The current demonstration code contains three major conceptual pieces:

  • Server: An RDF/OWL "quad" store holding the user's data described using the vocabularies of the Persona Data Model 2.0. It exposes these data to the Portal and the HBX (see below) via an HTTP/Comet messaging interface. It also exposes the data via a SPARQL endpoint for server-to-server integrations.
  • Portal/Client: This is the pure web HTML/JavaScript client UI. It lets the user see and edit attributes.
  • Higgins Browser Extension (HBX): Loads JavaScript programs from the PDS and runs them within the browser. It also provides an API that allows it to read and write to the PDS. This locally running code could, for example scrape data from a web page and store it in the PDS.

Details

These conceptual pieces are broken down to a much more granular level and implemented in many components, as described in the Personal Data Service Overview.
