Project Development Weekly Progress Report #8

Team Name: Collaborative Science Platform

Date: 05.12.2023

Progress Summary

This week, we enhanced the user-friendliness of several pages and completed final preparations for our milestone. A LaTeX renderer for mathematical formulas was implemented, and we introduced semantic tagging and annotations features. The design and APIs for the workspace page are now set up, although they are not fully integrated yet. Thus, we have implemented all core functionalities of the app, making it ready for presentation and comprehensible to the customer.

Subteams:

• Front-end Team: Zülal, Bengisu, Abdullah, Mehmet, Ömer Faruk, Leyla
• Back-end Team: Ömer Şükrü, Ahmed Bera, Oğuz, Hakan, Arda, Ali Mert

Our objective for the following week, is to complete workspace page in the frontend with the functionalities that were not implemented yet in the last milestone. Also, we will implement Q&A functionality and proceed on the annotation functionality. In the backend, in addition to the Q&A, we are also going to implement API endpoints for admin functionalities and review functionality.

Completed Tasks After Milestone 2

Milestone Report #2 was prepared	#535	Team	#560

Planned vs. Actual

• Issue #477, We have planned to connect the workspace provider to the workspace page. We sent requests to GET API and processed their result to display on the workspaces page. But we had unexpected errors while dealing with the POST API's. We had to update our request sending mechanism. Since the issue is more complex than we expected, we couldn't complete it on time.
• Issue #485, The intention was to update the model to include and exclude some fields to correctly address the latest implementation of semantic tags. But later it turned out that it was already updated. So no implementation task is done.
• In issue #497, the intention was to edit the profile page design and make it seem nicer. However when the task is finished, PR merge is postponed since frontend branch was corrupted. We wanted to merge it to the new branch since its not a critical task.

Remaining Features

Rank	Feature	Reason
10	Workspace (cont.)	It is related with and prerequisite for most of other features.
9	Annotation	The customer values a lot
8	Review	One of the core features and without it the project is meaningless since the nodes are created after the review of the workspaces
7	ORCID	It provides reliability for the platform
6	Q&A	It is allows basic users to interact more with the application and supports knowledge sharing
5	Email & Notification	It allows users to be notified instantly and engage them more with the platform
4	Semantic Search (cont.)	It is implemented already. It is going to be improved and its bugs will be fixed
3	Admin Features	It does not affect the main functionalities, only improves user experience and reliability
2	Sorting	It does not affect the main functionalities, only improves user experience
1	Privacy Policy	It does not affect the main functionalities or user experience

Risks

• We might encounter challenges rendering LaTeX math formulas and implementing annotations to formulas. A potential workaround could involve separating explanations and formulas for clarity.
