Re: [ws-calendar] Use of WS-Calendar in Energy Interoperation

[Girish Ghatikar <gghatikar@lbl.gov>]

Toby,

Sounds good. We need to generate some sample codes of these derivations in EI and see how the intervals and gluons map into different services. 

Thank you!

Intervals and gluons are related to each other by the related-to (EI uses an older version – I will update Ed’s work in EI soon). Relations are used to “launch sequences as subroutines” or to apply a price to a whole set of intervals (sequence) through a gluon and related-to. A single interval standing alone does not need one, but we do need that optionality in EI.

 

In WS-Calendar, the attach is a null type that can contain some XML. In EI, we derive the base signal type from that null type, which means that to ws-calendar, the EI signals appear as legal attachments in any vobject. In EI, we put the signal types in intervals as attachments. In effect the x-wsCalendar-attach is merely the validation glue between the two.

 

Of course, in the XML, the x-wscalendnar-attach controls artifact validation only.

Hi Toby,

This looks great. Can you please remind me what xcal:related-to and xcal:x-wsCalendar-attach refer to?

Thank you,
