چکیده
The OWLGrEd Ontology Visualizer is an online tool for visualizing OWL ontologies using a compact UML-based notation. This paper describes the implementation of the OWLGrEd Ontology Visualizer which consists of a web-based user interface, the graph (visualization) generation component, the layout component and the graph rendering and sharing component. The paper concludes with a list of future development ideas including switching from HTML canvas to vector graphics and extending the visualization with an ontology verbalization layer.

متن کاملAdvanced Ontology Visualization with OWLGrEd
Intuitive ontology visualization is a key for their learning, exchange, as well as their usage in conceptual modeling. OWLGrEd is a visual tool for compact graphical UML-style rendering and editing of OWL 2.0 ontologies. Here we introduce into OWLGrEd visualization annotations that allow defining custom visual presentations of ontology entities on the basis of annotations attached to these enti...

متن کاملGraphical Schema Editing for Stardog OWL/RDF Databases using OWLGrEd/S
The developers of StarDog OWL/RDF DBMS have pioneered a new use of OWL as a schema language for RDF databases. This is achieved by adding integrity constraints (IC), also expressed in OWL syntax, to the traditional “open-world” OWL axioms. The new database paradigm requires a suitable visual schema editor. We propose here a two-level approach for integrated visual UML-style editing of extended ...
