چکیده
We present an extension of the existing Protégé system that supports collaborative ontology editing. The extended system—Collaborative Protégé—is currently available as a prototype. In addition to the common ontology editing operations, it enables annotation of both ontology components and ontology changes. It supports the searching and filtering of user annotations based on different criteria. We have implemented two types of voting mechanisms that can be used for voting of change proposals.

A rational reconstruction of INTERNIST-I using PROTEGE-II.
PROTEGE-II is a methodology and a suite of tools that allow developers to build and maintain knowledge-based systems in a principled manner. We used PROTEGE-II to reconstruct the well-known INTERNIST-I system, demonstrating the role of a domain ontology (a framework for specification of a model of an application area), a reusable problem-solving method, and declarative mapping relations in crea...
متن کاملTowards Reusable Explanation Services in Protege
We present several extensions of the explanation facility of the ontology editor Protege. Currently, explanations of OWL entailments in Protege are provided as justifications—minimal subsets of axioms that entail the given axiom. The plugin called ‘explanation workbench’ computes justifications using a black-box algorithm and displays them in a convenient way. Recently, several other (mostly gl...
متن کاملObservations in collaborative ontology editing using Collaborative Protégé
Creation of an ontology according to some common plan is best accomplished collaboratively. This is sometimes contradicted by the distribution of the ontology’s developers. An obvious solution therefore is to build collaboration into ontology development tools. Such support necessarily includes both the technical means to perform editing operations upon an ontology, but also support for the com...
متن کاملWeb-Protege: A Lightweight OWL Ontology Editor for the Web
In this paper, we present Web-Protégé—a web-based lightweight ontology editor. Web-Protégé is open source, uses the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) for the user interface, and Protégé for supporting ontology services. We used components of Collaborative Protégé to augment the ontology-editing environment with facilities for discussions and annotations. In this paper, we describe both the server and th...
متن کاملCollaborative Protege: Enabling Community-based Authoring of Ontologies
Ontologies are becoming so large in their coverage that no single person or a small group of people can develop them effectively and ontology development becomes a community-based enterprise. We present Collaborative Protégé—an extension of the Protégé ontology editor that we have designed specifically to support the collaboration process for a community of users. During the ontology-developmen...
