Hi Atilla --

I'm searching for suitable ontology tool base to use in a graduate course. What would be suitable for students to use
during one semester, light-weight,
easy to install (or for remote
use), straight forward
to use, without cost? Perhaps a single tool supporting RDF, OWL, & inference
capabilities?
You may like to try the system and its OWL,RDF and other examples online at the site below.
As you may see, you can type rules and facts into a browser, then
run
them and get explanations of the results. (Explanations seem to
be particularly valuable when reasoning over RDF). So, the system works
as
a kind of Wiki for executable content.
For large amounts of data, the system can automatically generate and
run SQL queries and transactions over networked databases, and can explain the results at the conceptual level.
Shared use of the system is
free.
Some background is in [1,2,3,4]. HTH, -- Adrian
