  • Mashup 2. Mashup
    Mashup 2. Mashup: A mashup is a Web page or application that uses and combines data, presentation or functionality from two or more sources to create new services. The term implies easy, fast integration, frequently using open API (Application Programming Interface) and data sources to produce enriched results that were not necessarily the original reason for producing the raw source data. 3. Good ideas behind Mashup: Allow information to be viewed from different perspectives (e.g., view real estate data on a ¬ map) Combine data from multiple sources into a single unified view (e.g., compare gas prices in the ¬ neighborhood). Enrich raw data with new information (e.g., view eBay real estate auction along with Amazon) ¬ 4. Mashups have recently exploded on the web, for two main reasons. • First, many of the major internet companies, such as Yahoo! , Google , and Amazon ,have opened up their data to be used with other data sources without a lengthy licensing negotiation. In just a minute or two, you can set up and use the data resources they make available. • The other reason for this rapid growth is the advent of new tools that make creating mashups easy for anyone, regardless of their technical know-how. 5. Recent Common Services! (Similar to mashup) a) Web Portals: Yahoo! provide information of different kinds under a single unified theme. 6. Recent Common Services! (Similar to mashup) b) Web Information Aggregators: (MySimon) etc. provide price comparison services for many products. c) RSS (Really Simple Syndication): collect feeds from different news sites to create a news channel.

  • Scientific Mashups
    Scientific Mashups: Runtime-Configurable Data Product Ensembles Bill Howe1?, Harrison Green-Fishback2, and David Maier2 1 University of Washington ([email protected]) 2 Portland State University (fhgmf, [email protected]) Abstract. Mashups are gaining popularity as a rapid-development, re- use-oriented programming model to replace monolithic, bottom-up appli- cation development. This programming style is attractive for the \long tail" of scientific data management applications, characterized by ex- ploding data volumes, increasing requirements for data sharing and col- laboration, but limited software engineering budgets. We observe that scientists already routinely construct a primitive, static form of mashup|an ensemble of related visualizations that convey a specific scientific message encoded as, e.g., a Powerpoint slide. Inspired by their ubiquity, we adopt these conventional data-product ensembles as a core model, endow them with interactivity, publish them online, and allow them to be repurposed at runtime by non-programmers. We observe that these scientific mashups must accommodate a wider audience than commerce-oriented and entertainment-oriented mashups. Collaborators, students (K12 through graduate), the public, and pol- icy makers are all potential consumers, but each group has a different level of domain sophistication. We explore techniques for adapting one mashup for different audiences by attaching additional context, assigning defaults, and re-skinning component products. Existing mashup frameworks (and scientific workflow systems) emphasize an expressive \boxes-and-arrows" abstraction suitable for engineering individual products but overlook requirements for organizing products into synchronized ensembles or repurposing them for different audiences. In this paper, we articulate these requirements for scientific mashups, describe an architecture for composing mashups as interactive, reconfig- urable, web-based, visualization-oriented data product ensembles, and report on an initial implementation in use at an Ocean Observatory.
