Hi, my primary interests are Focus 2 (TEST) (and also Focus 1). As first input for TEST, I have released a version of TRIPLE today containing a standalone implementation of DAML+OIL. Some features of the DAML+OIL implementation: - system is (mainly) in Java - parses DAML+OIL ontologies with Jena - output in various syntaxes (LISP, XML for FaCT DTD; others can easily be added) - external DL classifier can be automatically invoked (at the moment, RACER; support for FaCT will follow) - output from DL classifier (taxonomy only) can be returned in various formats: DAML, LISP, XML, DOT (for visualization with GraphViz) Some notes on TRIPLE: TRIPLE is a general RDF query, inference, and transformation language which allows various semantics of Semantic Web languages to be defined, either directly with TRIPLE rules, or by accessing external inference engines (like a DL classifier). One goal of TRIPLE is to have a language for data integration which requires one inference process to understand and process the semantics of several data sources which are expressed in different (Semantic Web) languages like RDF Schema, DAML+OIL, OWL, UML, Topic Maps, etc. TRIPLE is joint work with Stefan Decker and can be downloaded (for Linux and Windows) from: http://triple.semanticweb.org/ Michael ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Michael Sintek | email: sintek@db.stanford.edu | | Stanford Univ, DB Group | WWW : http://www.dfki.uni-kl.de/~sintek/ | | and DFKI Kaiserslautern | | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
