Abstract

This paper presents an approach to the development of bio-ontology using the Object-oriented Ontology Manager(OOM). OOM views a term of an ontology as an object which can be an instance or a concept. OOM facilitates the semi-automatic construction of ontologies by an intuitive interface and by inferencing with links among complicated and informative ontology terms. The main advantage of OOM is simple-to-use not compromising bioinformatics so that ontologies in a complicated domain such as bioinformatics can be modeled intuitively. The ontologies constructed by OOM are easily exported to ontologies in other ontology languages without semantic loss because the structures of both the ontology by OOM and the ontologies in most of standard ontology languages are analogous. A translator to another standard ontology language is also provided by OOM so that the ontology can be combined with others to be applied to more complicated applications.
