The presented demo is a simple web-based application for managing a wish list of products, in this case books. It uses an RDF-based model comprising books, authors and keywords and benefits from a generic programming model with facets that automatically attach context-sensitive commands based on what data and metadata arrives to the application; a first prototype is currently realized using a JSP (JavaServer Pages) tag library. Applying the framework to another example domain is straightforward, because model and views are well isolated from the generic parts. Knowledge workers testing this proof-of-concept application will make generous use of mouse right-clicks for activating dynamically composed popup menus.
