Altova SemanticWorks 2010 (Windows)

Altova SemanticWorks is the ground-breaking visual RDF/OWL editor for the Semantic Web from the creators of XMLSpy. Graphically design and edit RDF instance documents, RDF Schema RDFS vocabularies, and OWL ontologies then output the format of your choice. SemanticWorks streamlines the job with full syntax and semantics checking. Additionally, context-sensitive...

A Proposal for Ontology Security Standards

Semantic technologies, such as RDF Resource Description Framework and OWL Web Ontology Language, are being widely used to store information. Ontology is mostly used in semantic platforms or embedded in other applications as a repository system. Data is the most crucial asset of information systems, and ontology can be used...

Integrating Object-Oriented and Ontological Representations: A Case Study in Java and OWL

The Web Ontology Language OWL provides a modelling paradigm that is especially well suited for developing models of large, structurally complex domains such as those found in Health Care and the Life Sciences. OWL's declarative nature combined with powerful reasoning tools has effectively supported the development of very large and...

The Consistency of OWL Full

The paper shows that OWL1 Full without the comprehension principles is consistent, and does not break most RDF graphs that do not use the OWL vocabulary. This paper discusses the role of the comprehension principles in OWL semantics, and how to maintain the relationship between OWL Full and OWL DL...

An OWL Full Interpretation

This paper is an appendix to report HPL-2008-59. It gives a worked example of the construction used in the proof from that report. For finiteness, a reduced datatype map consisting of only xsd:boolean is used. Each of the graphs in the construction is listed explicitly, with some redundancy eliminated. The...

Formalising the Proximate Semantics of XML Languages With UML, OWL and GRDDL

Many XML languages are defined in two steps, the first in terms of a mapping from XML documents to an abstract data model, the second by defining the meaning of the constituents of the abstract data model with respect to some domain. Another is W3C XML Schema, which explicitly separates...

Comparing OWL Semantics

The OWL Web Ontology Language is endowed with two model theories, reflecting its origins as a compromise between two different communities. By design these model theories give rise to very similar semantics, and a precise statement of the correspondence between the model theories is conjectured with a sketch proof at...

Discover Microformats for Embedding Semantics

The Resource Description Framework RDF and Web Ontology Language OWL are important technologies driving development on the road to the semantic web. The former is a set of World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) specifications that provide a model for representing metadata through specific statements, or triples, made up of subject-predicate-object...

Towards a Scalable and Efficient Middleware for Instance Retrieval Inference Services

Over the past years the Web Ontology Language OWL has successfully been used by an increasing number of applications for building ontology-based systems. Description Logic DL reasoners allow for formal domain modeling with OWL, and support decidable reasoning problems. Experiences show that many practical applications require reasoning, especially instance retrieval...

Enabling Knowledge-Based Software Engineering Through Semantic-Object-Relational Mappings

Domain-specific conceptualizations are increasingly specified as formal ontologies, as part of ongoing e orts for enabling the semantic web. However, experience has shown that semantic models and their incarnations into OWL structures, though powerful for expressing complex abstractions, remain difficult to utilize in conventional software projects. This paper presents the...

A Possible Simplification of the Semantic Web Architecture

In the semantic web architecture, Web ontology languages are built on top of RDFS. However, serious difficulties have arisen when trying to layer expressive ontology languages, like OWL, on top of RDF-Schema. Although these problems can be avoided, OWL and the whole semantic web architecture becomes much more complex than...
