We present the OWL API, a high level Application Programming Interface (API) for working with ontologies. The API is closely aligned 2 structural specification. It supports parsing and rendering in syntaxes defined W3C
The TAMBIS project aims to provide transparent access disparate biological databases and analysis tools, enabling users utilize a wide range of resources with the minimum effort. A prototype system has been developed that includes knowledge base terminology (the Concept Model), model underlying data sources Source Model) 'knowledge-driven' user interface. Biological concepts are captured in using description logic called GRAIL. Model provides necessary construct multiple-source queries,...
myExperiment (http://www.myexperiment.org) is an online research environment that supports the social sharing of bioinformatics workflows. These workflows are procedures consisting a series computational tasks using web services, which may be performed on data from its retrieval, integration and analysis, to visualization results. As public repository workflows, allows anybody discover those relevant their research, can then reused repurposed specific requirements. Conversely, developers...
This paper describes the Transparent Access to Multiple Bioinformatics Information Sources project, known as TAMBIS, in which a domain ontology for molecular biology and bioinformatics is used retrieval-based information integration system biologists. The ontology, represented using description logic managed by terminology server, both drive visual query interface global schema against complex intersource queries are expressed. These source-independent declarative then rewritten into...
An ontology of biological terminology provides a model concepts that can be used to form semantic framework for many data storage, retrieval and analysis tasks. Such could underpin range important bioinformatics tasks, such as the querying heterogeneous sources or systematic annotation experimental results.This paper an overview [the Transparent Access Multiple Biological Information Sources (TAMBIS) TaO] describes wide concepts. The present mechanisms delivering discusses ontology's design...
The visual appearance of a Web page influences the way user will interact with page. structural elements (such as text, tables, links, and images) their characteristics colour size) are used to determine presentation complexity level We theorise that by understanding user's aesthetic perception we can understand cognitive effort required for interaction This paper describes an investigation into pages. Results show strong high correlation between users' complexity, (links, images, words...
Abstract What will researchers be publishing in the future? Whilst there is little question that Web publication platform, as scholars move away from paper towards digital content, a need for mechanisms support production of self-contained units knowledge and facilitate publication, sharing reuse such entities. In this we discuss notion research objects , semantically rich aggregations resources, can possess some scientific intent or objective. We present number principles expect their...
Scientific workflows are a popular mechanism for specifying and automating data-driven in silico experiments. A significant aspect of their value lies potential to be reused. Once shared, become useful building blocks that can combined or modified developing new However, previous studies have shown storing workflow specifications alone is not sufficient ensure they successfully reused, without being able understand what the aim achieve re-enact them. To gain an understanding workflow, how it...

Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) provides a data model and vocabulary for expressing Systems (KOSs) such as thesauri classification schemes in Semantic Web applications. This paper presents the main components of SKOS their formal expression Ontology Language (OWL), providing an extensive account design decisions taken by Deployment (SWD) Working Group World Wide Consortium (W3C), which between 2006 2009 brought to status W3C Recommendation. The explains key principles "minimal...
