Project Design and Planning

Projects approved by the Digital Humanities Program receive special attention in developing and refining the project plan and application design. Staff expertise is also available during regular office hours to faculty without approved projects or faculty seeking project approval.

Software Project Support

The College provides some infrastructure support for projects approved by the Digital Humanities Program. Contact James Smith for help in provisioning these resources.

Source Code Management

Approved projects may take advantage of a centrally managed code repository provided by the College for digital humanities projects. This repository is designed for those faculty or other members of a research project who are comfortable programming. Tools with subversion integration (e.g., the Eclipse IDE) will be able to work with the repository.

Project Management

Approved projects may also use a web-based project management system that can be integrated with the source code repository. This includes a wiki and support for setting milestones or short-term project goals in consultation with support staff.

Digital Resources Workbench

The Digital Resources Workbench is designed to make common collection and annotation projects easy to develop without the faculty member having to make a large investment in understanding and developing the technology infrastructure. This system is under development and will slowly be rolled out over the 2008-2009 year.
