We present WebODE as a scalable, integrated workbench for ontological engineering that eases the modelling of ontologies, the reasoning with ontologies and the exchange of ontologies with other ontology tools and ontology-based applications. We will first describe the WebODE's knowledge model. We will then describe its extensible architecture, focusing on the set of independent ontology development functionalities that are integrated in this framework, such as the Ontology Editor, the Axiom…

WEBODE in a Nutshell

WEBODE presents a framework to integrate new ontology-based tools and services, where developers only worry about the new logic they want to provide on top of the knowledge stored in their ontologies.

THE ONBROWSER ONTOLOGY MANAGER: MANAGING ONTOLOGIES ON THE GRID

The design and a first implementation of OnBrowser is presented, an ontology manager that provides access to “knowledge objects” coding ontology portions and referring to Grid metadata, through both user interfaces and application programming interfaces.

Tutorial on ontological engineering Part 2: Ontology development, tools and languages

  • R. Mizoguchi
  • Computer Science, Philosophy

  • 2009
The first topic of ontology applications is the semantic web in which semantic interoperability, metadata and web service ontology are described and LOM: Learning Object Metadata and ontology-aware authoring systems are discussed followed by conclusion.

Ontology Translation Approaches for Interoperability: A Case Study with Protégé-2000 and WebODE

Four ontology translation approaches that can be used to exchange ontologies between ontology tools and/or ontology languages are described and illustrated with practical examples that show how they can be applied to achieve interoperability between the ontological tools Protege-2000 and WebODE.

Evaluation experiment for the editor of the WebODE ontology workbench

This work summarizes the design decisions on the conceptualization of a travelling ontology, when building the ontology editor of the WebODE ontology engineering workbench with an axiom editor called WAB (WebODE Axiom Builder).

Ontology Development Tools for Ontology- Based Knowledge Management

A new generation of tools that not only support more capabilities, but also solve the problems of current tools are developed to introduce and understand several tools through their use.

Ideas and Improvements for Semantic Wikis

We present an architecture for combining wikis containing hypertext with ontologies containing formal, structured information. A web-based ontology editor that supports collaborative work through…

Semantic Enrichment for Ontology Mapping

A heuristic mapping method and a prototype mapping system that support the process of semi-automatic ontology mapping for the purpose of improving semantic interoperability in heterogeneous systems are presented.

WebODE: a scalable workbench for ontological engineering

This paper presents WebODE as a workbench for ontological engineering that not only allows the collaborative edition of ontologies at the knowledge level, but also provides a scalable architecture…

The Ontolingua Server: a tool for collaborative ontology construction

This work has developed a set of tools and services to support the process of achieving consensus on commonly shared ontologies by geographically distributed groups, and describes applications using these tools to achieve consensus on ontologies and to integrate information.

OilEd: a Reason-able Ontology Editor for the Semantic Web

OilEd is an ontology editor that has an easy to use frame interface, yet at the same time allows users to exploit the full power of an expressive web ontology language (OIL).

Tadzebao and WebOnto: discussing, browsing, and editing ontologies on the Web

Tadzebao enables knowledge engineers to hold synchronous and asynchronous discussions about ontologies, and WebOnto uses a Java based client to alleviate the acknowledged problems of creating interfaces in `vanilla HTML'.

WonderTools? A comparative study of ontological engineering tools

The usefulness of the tools depends on the level of the users and the stage of development of the ontology, as well as cooperation with other users.
