Case Study: Using Protege to Convert the Travel Ontology to UML and OWL.
Holger Knublauch · 2003
Our goal was to evaluate the import/export capabilities of Protege between various ontology file formats. As a starting point, we chose the Travel ontology used for the Protege experiment from the previous EON workshop. We exported this into UML, from where we could import most of the ontology into the mainstream software development tool Poseidon. Furthermore, we exported the ontology into OWL. The resulting OWL file could be processed by the OWL Species Validator. All transformations maintained the structure of the ontology without problems but could not handle all of the model semantics correctly.
