Follow-up on SemanticWorks 2006 (owl:imports)

Harry Chen, 1:52pm 16 November 2005

A while back I wrote a blog that reports my user experience with SemanticWorks 2006. In my blog, I claimed that the software doesn’t seem to support the use of owl:imports when editing an OWL ontology.

Today an anonymous person is kindly enough to inform me that I was wrong — see my blog’s comment section. I took this person’s advise and try the software again. This time I’m able to use owl:imports when editing an ontology.

The following shows I successfully defined an ontology that imports SOUPA Document ontology, and which in turn imports SOUPA Person and SOUPA Time ontologies:

The following shows the class view of all classes that are imported from different ontology documents:

The following shows the property view of all properties that are imported from different ontology documents:
