Demos

We will look briefly at work by Tammi DiPrima and Tim Worrall to add people's home institution to supplement their department name in http://reach.suny.edu

Joe McEnerney will then show a web-based data integrity tool he is developing to help find and process malformed and/or duplicate data in Cornell VIVO. This tool is currently hardwired to use local ontology extensions but we want to make it available in a more configurable form. If there are sites interested in using it and helping with that process it would be good to know.
