The OWL - S Editor – A Domain - Specific Extension to Protégé
نویسنده
چکیده
Web service technology establishes a common, vendor-neutral platform for integrating distributed computing applications, in intranets as well as on the Internet at large. Semantic Web Services (SWSs) promise to provide solutions to the challenges associated with automated discovery, dynamic composition, enactment, and other tasks associated with managing and using service-based systems. One of the barriers to a wider adoption of SWS technology is the lack of tools for creating SWS specifications. OWL-S[1] is one of the major SWS description languages. This paper presents an OWL-S Editor, whose objective is to allow easy, intuitive OWL-S service development and to provide a variety of special-purpose capabilities to facilitate SWS design. The editor is implemented as a plugin to the Protégé OWL ontology editor, and is being developed as open-source software. We introduce the main features of this tool, from the perspective of the Protégé user.

OWLGrEd: a UML Style Graphical Notation and Editor for OWL 2
There have been several attempts to visualize OWL ontologies with UML style diagrams. Unlike ODM approach of defining a UML profile for OWL, we propose an extension to UML class diagrams (hard extension) that allows a more compact OWL visualization. The compactness is achieved through the native power of UML class diagrams extended with optional Manchester encoding for class expressions thus av...
متن کاملA model of characteristics' formalization using Protégé-0WL
This paper proposes a model for formalizing concept characteristics in a manner consistent with the Terminology theoretical framework. We will focus on the identification of the elements that take part in characteristic formalization and their role, as well as on the double nature of characteristic. Finally, we provide a preliminary outline of characteristics description formalization using an ...
متن کاملProtege Extensions for Scientist-Oriented Modeling of Observation and Measurement Semantics
We present Protégé-OWL extensions designed to help scientists define domain-specific ontologies for describing observational data. The extensions provide high-level forms that users can fill out from within Protégé to specify classes used to describe scientific measurements. As a user fills out a form, underlying OWL-DL axioms are automatically asserted, thus allowing users to specify relativel...
متن کاملUML Style Graphical Notation and Editor for OWL 2
OWL is becoming the most widely used knowledge representation language. It has several textual notations but no standard graphical notation apart from verbose ODM UML. We propose an extension to UML class diagrams (heavyweight extension) that allows a compact OWL visualization. The compactness is achieved through the native power of UML class diagrams extended with optional Manchester encoding ...
