COBrA and COBrA-CT: Ontology Engineering Tools
نویسندگان
چکیده
COBrA is a Java-based ontology editor for bio-ontologies and anatomies that differs from other editors by supporting the linking of concepts between two ontologies, and providing sophisticated analysis and verification functions. In addition to the Gene Ontology and Open Biology Ontologies formats, COBrA can import and export ontologies in the Semantic Web formats RDF, RDFS and OWL. COBrA is being re-engineered as a Protégé plug-in, and complemented by an ontology server and a tool for the management of ontology versions and collaborative ontology development. We describe both the original COBrA tool and the current developments in this chapter.

Managing the transition from OBO to OWL: The COBrA-CT Bio-Ontology Tools
This paper presents the COBrA-CT ontology tools, which include an ontology server database and version manager client tool for collaborative ontology development, and an editor for bioontologies that are represented in the Web Ontology Language (OWL) format. The ontology server uses OGSA-DAI Grid technology to provide access to the ontology server database. These tools implement the agreed stan...
متن کاملOBO Explorer: an editor for open biomedical ontologies in OWL
MOTIVATION To clarify the semantics, and take advantage of tools and algorithms developed for the Semantic Web, a mapping from the Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) format to the Web Ontology Language (OWL) has been established. We present an ontology editor that allows end users to work directly with this OWL representation of OBO format ontologies. AVAILABILITY http://www.aiai.ed.ac.uk/proje...

متن کاملThe SOUPA Ontology for Pervasive Computing
This paper describes SOUPA (Standard Ontology for Ubiquitous and Pervasive Applications) and the use of this ontology in building the Context Broker Architecture (CoBrA). CoBrA is a new agent architecture for supporting pervasive context-aware systems in a smart space environment. The SOUPA ontology is expressed using the Web Ontology Language OWL and includes modular component vocabularies to ...
