Abstract

Bio-zen plus is an OWL DL ontology for the domain of biomedical research. It incorporates several existing Semantic Web ontologies: the DOLCE foundational ontology, the Simple Knowledge Organisation System (SKOS), the Semantically Interlinked Online Communities ontology (SIOC), FOAF ontology, the Dublin Core metadata schema and the Creative Commons Metadata schema. The contents of many biomedical taxonomies and ontologies are available as extension packages. Bio-zen plus is the first ontology in the domain of life sciences that is optimized for practical use on the Semantic Web and makes extensive use of existing Semantic Web ontologies.
