JavaScript Topic Maps in server environments

Article, was published by Jan Schreiber at 2010-09-30

This paper is about the JavaScript-based Topic Maps Engine tmjs.

This paper shows how server-side Topic Maps applications can be created with node and the JavaScript Topic Maps engine tmjs. Node provides event-based JavaScript for server-side applications. As an example, a simple PSI server is presented. Node requires applications to run in one single thread using non-blocking, asynchronous function calls. To achieve this goal, this paper outlines an asynchronous version of TMAPI.
