Research on original text images database of old Korean books in Japan by international standard Ajax techniques

The original textual images database system of old Korean books in Japan with international standard Ajax techniques was implemented on MS Windows 2008 Server R2. We installed Open Source software named Apache HTTP Server 2.2，Apache Tomcat 7.0，Postgres SQL 9.0 and EnterpriseApache PHP on this server，and we developed the information systemin order to display original textual images with JSP, Java framework JSF, JavaScript and HTML, and with Ajax techniques. That system can display expansion and reduction image of original textual image size, and can move image up and down, left and right by operation of computer mouse without screen transition. But we could not complete to combine these image database with the metadata database of these original textual images, and with the current database DOKB that stands for Database of Old Korean Books in Japan to create a new Database system because of delay of the copyright of original textual images acquisition and because of large scale changes of data processing environment of our university. Cause of biggest things is no longer available the data processing systems and sort/merge program that have been used more than ten years by large scale information system renewals in Information Technology Center.
