HarmoniQuA: The guideline and glossary tool (JAVA version)
Description: Implemented the JAVA version of the "Guideline tool" for the HarmoniQuA project. 
Keywords: HarmoniQuA guideline - MOST tool, glossary tool, knowledge base, project management 
Status: Complete (September 2003 - January 2004)
The "Guideline Tool" is a project management tool able to retrieve and present knowledge base information available in XML format with the appropriate way (via XSL) for different classes of users.

It was latter embedded in the MOST tool. One can easily see guideline's and glossary's functionality within MOST.

The fact that guideline was written in JAVA and more importantly its modular design made easy the reuse of several of its components like the tree and flowchart view of guideline documents.

HarmoniQuA is a project under the European Commission's "Energy, Environment and Sustainable Development" programme.
