An online analytical processing multi-dimensional data warehouse for malaria data. Database (2017) Vol. 2017: article ID bax073; doi:10.1093/database/bax073 Received 15 July 2016; Revised 21 August 2017; Accepted 22 August 2017 Abstract Malaria is a vector-borne disease that contributes substantially to the global burden of morbidity and mortality. The management of malaria-related data from heterogeneous, autonomous, and distributed data sources poses unique challenges and requirements. Although online data storage systems exist that address specific malaria-related issues, a globally integrated online resource to address different aspects of the disease does not exist. In this article, we describe the design, implementation, and applications of a multi- dimensional, online analytical processing data warehouse, named the VecNet Data Warehouse (VecNet-DW). It is the first online, globally-integrated platform that provides efficient search, retrieval and visualization of historical, predictive, and static malaria- related data, organized in data marts.

The TurboGears Toolbox provides tools for creating and charting your database model, adding data to your database with a web based GUI while you are still in development, debugging system problems, browsing all of the installed widgets, and internationalizing your application. 19.1 Toolbox Overview The TurboGears Toolbox is started with the tg-admin toolbox command. Your browser should automatically pop up when you start the Toolbox, but if it doesn’t you should still be able to browse to http://localhost:7654, where you’ll see a web page with links for each of the tools in the toolbox (as seen in Figure 19.1). FIGURE 19.1 The TurboGears Toolbox home page Each of the components in the Toolbox is also a TurboGears application, so you can also look at them as examples of how TurboGears applications are built. 372 226Ramm_ch19i_indd.indd6Ramm_ch19i_indd.indd 337272 110/17/060/17/06 111:50:431:50:43 AAMM 19.2 ModelDesigner 373 Because there isn’t anything in TurboGears that can’t be done in code or from the command line, the use of the Toolbox is entirely optional.
