The Integrated Relational Information System ( IRIS for short ) is a sub-project of the Cooperation Wood Construction of the Future carried out from 2006 to 2008 in which 22 different research projects relating to the material wood were carried out. The Technical University of Munich, the University of Applied Sciences Rosenheim and the Institute for Window Technology in Rosenheim were involved. The financing took place as part of the high-tech offensive Bavaria.

history

In the course of the project, the prototype of a network-based, practical and up-to-date knowledge management system based on a relational database was created, which allowed a simple and quick targeted search with fuzzy terms using a star browser (see figure).

The focus was on a hierarchical taxonomy tree and a network of terms ( semantic network ), which could be expanded beyond the taxonomy tree through user behavior. IRIS also functioned as a meta database from which partner databases connected to a standardized user interface could be included in the search requests. The efficient search engine with filter functions was developed using Lucene and Regaine.

The results of the project are summarized in the final report Integrated Relational Information System for Timber Construction: IRIS.

The project will be continued from 2008 to 2011 under the name OSIRIS and funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology with a focus on knowledge management. OSIRIS is part of the Fit for the knowledge competition of the Fraunhofer Institute IPK. The focus is on the inclusion of modern language technologies for term extraction and a thesaurus provided with ontological relationships . The first implementation on the basis of OSIRIS is the Internet portal Wikiwood (formerly "Wood Databases"). It enables free access to industry knowledge in the wood industry.
