OwlEd is a novel ontology manager originally designed for simple and effective interaction with non-standard services available in MaMaS-tng, including Concept Abduction, Concept Contraction, Semantic ranking, Concept Covering, and Match type detection. Such services have been devised to cope with all scenarios where an approximate semantic match is needed. OwlEd is nevertheless a complete ontology manager, natively built on OWL. It is endowed of all standard features of an ontology manager, such as creating, editing and verifying ontologies and to perform standard TELL and ASK operations. It works with any DIG1.1 compliant reasoning engine, although non-standard inferences are only supported for MaMaS-tng. OwlEd exposes a fully graphical interface, allows one to build nested class expressions that can be managed via drag and drop. Exploiting non standard inferences, semantic matchmaking processes are easily managed and interactive ontology debugging is also supported. We present here the tool and its main functionalities when used in conjunction with MaMaS-tng.

Abstract
OwlEd is a novel ontology manager originally designed for simple and effective interaction with non-standard services available in MaMaS-tng, including Concept Abduction, Concept Contraction, Semantic ranking, Concept Covering, and Match type detection. Such services have been devised to cope with all scenarios where an approximate semantic match is needed. OwlEd is nevertheless a complete ontology manager, natively built on OWL. It is endowed of all standard features of an ontology manager, such as creating, editing and verifying ontologies and to perform standard TELL and ASK operations. It works with any DIG1.1 compliant reasoning engine, although non-standard inferences are only supported for MaMaS-tng. OwlEd exposes a fully graphical interface, allows one to build nested class expressions that can be managed via drag and drop. Exploiting non standard inferences, semantic matchmaking processes are easily managed and interactive ontology debugging is also supported. We present here the tool and its main functionalities when used in conjunction with MaMaS-tng.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
