The MG-RAST API explorer: an on-ramp for RESTful query composition

A RESTful API for Accessing Microbial Community Data for MG-RAST

Metagenomic sequencing has produced significant amounts of data in recent years. For example, as of summer 2013, MG-RAST has been used to annotate over 110,000 data sets totaling over 43 Terabases. With metagenomic sequencing finding even wider adoption in the scientific community, the existing web-based analysis tools and infrastructure in MG-RAST provide limited capability for data retrieval ...

LAILAPS-QSM: A RESTful API and JAVA library for semantic query suggestions

In order to access and filter content of life-science databases, full text search is a widely applied query interface. But its high flexibility and intuitiveness is paid for with potentially imprecise and incomplete query results. To reduce this drawback, query assistance systems suggest those combinations of keywords with the highest potential to match most of the relevant data records. Widesp...

Sni'per: a Code Snippet RESTful API

Today we use the Web for almost everything, even to program. There are several specialized code editors gravitating on the Web and emulating most of the features inherited from traditional IDEs, such as, syntax highlight, code folding, autocompletion and even code refactorization. One of the techniques to speed the code development is the use of snippets as predefined code blocks that can be au...

Restpark: Minimal RESTful API for Retrieving RDF Triples

How do RDF datasets currently get published on the Web? They are either available as large RDF files, which need to be downloaded and processed locally, or they exist behind complex SPARQL endpoints. By providing a RESTful API that can access triple data, we allow users to query a dataset through a simple interface based on just a couple of HTTP parameters. If RDF resources were published this ...
