There is an IBM ontology management system called SNOBASE. Details at: 
http://www.daml.org/tools/#SNOBASE. It has high level java APIs for 
managing ontologies written in OWL. Also, in this SNOBASE package, there 
is a basic version of API for accessing DAML-S ontology model for Web 
Services.  You can download it and try it out from:
