Log of website: journal of main actions or updates
This website is dedicated to the Terminologia Anatomica Humana TAH, open in the public domain since December 2021.
The chapters of this terminology are realised starting from TA98, adding TA2 and other findings when necessary. The new TAH is intended to replace all previous editions of the terminology, waiting for an official decision of the IFAA general assembly.
Care is given to maintain this website as stable as possible. However, important developments must be progressively added and may impact the overall presentation.
The present page displays in inverted chronologic order the list of the main actions that have been performed on this site. Move to the information buttons in the list in order to see detailed information.
23 Sep 2024 Completion of partonomic lists for taxonomic links
A complete review of partonomic lists is performed: for each unit in the list, the equivalent position in the taxonomy is searched for and the corresponding link is created. When this task is done, all lists in Latin, English, French and Spanish are created or refreshed. At the present date, 6 chapters are terminated and the other chapters are squeduled within 3 months. See the progress report on taxonomic lists for more information.
17 Aug 2024 Improvement of interlanguage navigation
The top menu and its immediate successor pages have been entirely revisited in order to make the language selections permanent as long as they are not changed by a specific user action. From now on, the FRLAFR and ESLAES selections are totally French and Spanish. However, their links to Unit pages may be temporarily unsatisfied due to the large number of these pages (up to 20000 per language).
22 Jul 2024 General refreshment of partonomy
After completion of all chapters of the terminology, a general update of the partonomy has been performed. The French and Spanish versions of the partonomy have been realized, but a validation by a native speaker of these languages is still missing. The progress report on partonomy has been updated.
22 Jul 2024 General refreshment of taxonomy
After completion of all chapters of the terminology, a general update of the taxonomy has been performed. The taxonomy is supposed to be realized at 80 percent or more at the time now. The rest are entities for which the taxonomic ancestor has not yet been defined. The French and Spanish versions of the taxonomy have been realized, but a validation by a native speaker of these languages is still missing. The progress report on taxonomy has been updated.
25 Jun 2024 Improved version of the book on lists and signatures (chapter 7)
This chapter has been largely updated. It gives now an information on the lists, their integrity and the validation system with the signatures of lists.
31 May 2024 Regeneration of the partonomic lists for French and Spanish
All partonomic lists of TAH in LAFR and LAES have been regenerated. They include the links from partonomy to taxonomy.
24 May 2024 Links from partonomy to taxonomy
A new hyperlink is created when possible for each entity in a partonomic list, driving to the corresponding location in the taxonomy. This is possible when the taxonomic information for the entity has been collected and the related portion of the taxonomy has been effectively developed. A reverse hyperlink from taxonomy to partonomy will be created at some future time.
22 May 2024 Regeneration of the partonomic lists.
All partonomic lists of TAH in LAEN have been regenerated. The partonomy of TAH is now totally available on the website, as well as PDF and table format, allowing transfers for personal convenience.
16 May 2024 Full TAH now available.
All chapters of TAH have been now processed and validated. They are visible in the partonomy. The adjustment of the website to all new chapters is underway. The vailability in four languages is the matter of a couple of weeks.
20 Feb 2024 Unit page adapted for display of partonomic relations
The presentation of Unit pages has been improved in order to display the specialized part_of relations used in each father/child transitions of the partonomy. The section on partonomy is now presented with the acronym of the relation implied with each transition. The Help on Unit page has been updated. The new version of Unit pages will be visible only on any new Unit page generated since now. The chapter on endocine glands has been entirely regenerated.
19 Feb 2024 Update of partonomic relations
Partonomic relations have been renamed following a systematic rule. In the partonomic hierarchy, the generic part_of relation is specialized for each transition from father to child. Each possible transition receives a specifc relation with a dedicated name as well as an acronym, used as a short display. The on_line documentation of each relation has been updated, as well as the chaper 13 on partonomy of the Universal book of terminology.
7 Feb 2024 New occurrence section for vocabulary
All the vocabulary units have an occurrence section, which goal is to document and to display all occurrences of the word introduced by this unit. The search is performed on the entire terminology, including the defined word and all derived words like adjectives or prefixes. The list of occurences gives hyperlinks to the unit pages of each occurrence. The Help on Unit page has been updated in order to present in details the occurrence section.
20 Jan 2024 Creation of the tests for languages
A collection of tests has been created for each language of the website. Three categories of tests will be progressively made available: 1) tests per word category, systematically applied to the entire vocabulary; 2) tests depending on the type of generated terms applied on selected representative terms; 3) tests of universal functions applied on selected representative terms. Most of the Latin tests are available and the tests for other languages will be later developed.
