FuGE Extensions

Currently, we do have the following FuGE-based (pieces of) models of experimental workflow in flow cytometry:

  1. Initial FuGE extension done by Josef and Peter (Nov 4, 2006)
  2. Olga’s gating, transformation, and compensation files extension (Nov 14, 2006)
  3. Settimo’s approach to gating (Dec 6, 2006)
  4. Josef’s logicle transformation extension example (Dec 12, 2006)
  5. Olga’s FuGE-motivated approach to encode MIFlowCyt into UML (Dec 22, 2006)

New Development Strategy

All the different approaches of extending FuGE have provided valuable lessons for all of us. The initial models are not quite compatible and not completely valid for use with model-driven architecture tools (AndroMDA). The group has agreed to start refactoring the model using the following strategy:

High Level Package Hierarchy

Initial step will be high level only: create and agree the UML package structure for further extensions, each package having a "content definition" attached. Proposals to come.

Work in Progress

MDZIP files

Refactored, formally validated UML model, with the Reporter and Detector parts only (as originally suggested during the meeting in Dallas). The extension contains one class diagram only.

The UML2 model:

The XML Schema (xsd) generated from the UML2 model using AndroMDA. The process of generating the XSD served also as automated formal syntax/integrity validation.
