Details
Duration
Half Day with hands on experience and pre- and post- material
Background knowledge required and potential attendees
Attendees should have experience of ontology development and use. Alternatively, the morning tutorial will provide sufficient introduction for those without such experience. No prior knowledge of the Protégé-OWL tools is required, although users will find it helpful to have looked at the Protégé OWL tutorial [PDF] and other tutorial material on the CO-ODE and Protégé web sites (see below).
Required Software
To get the most out of this session, you will need the following software installed:
- Protege 3.2 beta:
If you do not have java 5.0 installed on your machine, select a download that includes a Java VM (note for mac users)
Choose "Basic + OWL" in the installation dialog - A DL reasoner (try one or more of below):
- CO-ODE plugins:
download the complete package (approx 3MB)
unzip to the Protégé/plugins folder (overwrite contents where necessary) - Graphviz : (required for OWLViz) installing in the default location is recommended
Because of the speed at which the software is being updated, ensure you have a version that is up-to-date the week before the tutorial starts.
Please be aware, to minimise disruption on the day, we will only be able to handle installation queries during breaks, so please contact us if you have any difficulties beforehand.
