Trajectware - timeline-based navigation across computing heritage

" summary

Trajectware is an open-source framework for structuring and exploring illustrated historical events as timeline fragments to support research and public explanation of computing heritage. It uses a knowledge‑base back end modeled on ontologies (SEM, DOLCE/Spatial History Ontology, Constructed Past Theory, DBpedia) accessed via queries or an API to extract timelines, and a React Native front end that provides navigation operations to focus on periods, technological/conceptual/cultural aspects, or people and organisations; features are demonstrated with the NAM‑IP museum’s “micro‑computer, meg@ revolution” exhibition.
