Since achieving W3C recommendation status in 2004, the Web Ontology Language (OWL) has been successfully applied to many problems in computer science. Practical experience with OWL has been quite positive in general; however, it has also revealed room for improvement in several areas. We systematically analyze the identified shortcomings of OWL, such as expressivity issues, problems with its syntaxes, and deficiencies in the definition of OWL species. Furthermore, we present an overview of OWL 2—an extension to and revision of OWL that is currently being developed within the W3C OWL Working Group. Many aspects of OWL have been thoroughly reengineered in OWL 2, thus producing a robust platform for future development of the language.
Patching syntax in owl ontologies
- Proceedings of the 3rd International International Semantic Web Conference
, 2004
"... Abstract. An analysis of OWL ontologies represented in RDF/XML on the Web shows that a majority are OWL Full. In many cases this may not be through a desire to use the expressivity provided by OWL Full, but is rather due to syntactic errors or accidental misuse of the vocabulary. We present a “rogue ..."

Abstract. An analysis of OWL ontologies represented in RDF/XML on the Web shows that a majority are OWL Full. In many cases this may not be through a desire to use the expressivity provided by OWL Full, but is rather due to syntactic errors or accidental misuse of the vocabulary. We present a “rogues gallery ” of common errors encountered, and describe how robust parsers that attempt to cope with such errors can be produced. 1
WWW Business Applications Based on the Cellular Model

Abstract A cellular model based on the Incrementally Modular Abstraction Hierarchy (IMAH) is a novel model that can represent the architecture of and changes in cyberworlds, preserving invariants from a general level to a specific one. We have developed a data processing system called the Cellular Data System (CDS). In the development of business applications, you can prevent combinatorial explosion in the process of business design and testing by using CDS. In this paper, we have first designed and implemented wide-use algebra on the presentation level. Next, we have developed and verified the effectiveness of two general business applications using CDS: 1) a customer information management system, and 2) an estimate system.

This poster presents a programmatic interface (SKOS API) and plugin for Protégé 4 for editing and working with the Simple Knowledge Organisation System (SKOS). The SKOS API has been designed to work with SKOS models at a high level of abstraction to aid developers of applications that use SKOS. We discuss SKOSEd, a tool for authoring and editing SKOS artefacts. A key aspect to the design of the API and editor is how SKOS relates to OWL and what existing OWL infrastructure can be exploited to work with SKOS. 1.

Our expertise is in working mainly with aerospace manufacturers to apply techniques in managing, categorising, and visualising information to support costing of products. This paper outlines the technique of User Driven Modelling a technique for End User Programming. The idea behind this is that software users (in this case engineers) can create models that perform and visualise calculations (cost of manufacture and the reasons behind this cost). The advantage of this is that the engineers can share and adjust models without needing to call upon a software developer to reengineer the model. The time saved can give engineers the chance to cost designs early. This could allow the design to be changed before most of the future costs are incurred. This paper explains how the above aims can be achieved, in order to enable decision support during product development, whilst minimising dependence on specialist software and detailed programming effort. The basis of this is an Ontology that can be visualised and edited in tree form. We are using the open standard Stanford University Ontology tool Protégé. This Ontology can be translated into a Decision Support tool called DecisionPro, which runs the model. Software we have created using DecisionPro allows calculations of the cost of a design to be made, and provides a colour-coded representation of the product tree. It is then possible to output this tree in the form of web pages,

In this paper we investigate an extension of XQuery for querying and reasoning with OWL-style ontologies. The proposed extension adds new primitives (i.e. boolean operators) in XQuery for querying OWL-style triples in such a way that XQuery can be used as query language for OWL. We also study how to implement the cited extension of XQuery into logic programming.
