The DSI utilities are a mish mash of classes accumulated during the last ten years in projects developed at the DSI (Dipartimento di Scienze dell'Informazione, e.g., Information Sciences Department) of the Università degli Studi di Milano.

The DSI utilities are a mish mash of classes accumulated during the last ten years in projects developed at the DSI (Dipartimento di Scienze dell'Informazione, e.g., Information Sciences Department) of the Università degli Studi di Milano. They were originally distributed in several projects (mainly in MG4J) but we finally decided to gather all the material in a single place.

The DSI utilities are distributed under the GNU Lesser General Public License.

Highlights

The implementations available are a bit eclectic due to the particular kind of applications we developed. Very broadly, we have:

Package Dependencies

The DSI utilities use two packages providing high-performance containers and algorithms, that is, fastutil 5 or greater, and the COLT distribution. Command-line parsing and support requires JSAP. They use also a number of useful libraries from the Jakarta commons project, including collections, lang, configuration and io. All logging is performed using log4j.
