Abstract
Given the importance of domain ontologies for developing terminographic products, we propose a seven-step methodology -- OntoMethodus -- to build ontologies especially from unstructured sources. Finally, we present e-Termos, an ongoing project to develop an environment to support generation of terminographic products in Brazilian Portuguese which uses the OntoMethodus.

The Foundational Model of Anatomy in OWL 2 and its use
Objective: The objective is to represent the Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA) in the OWL 2 Web Ontology Language (informally OWL 2), and to use it in a European cross-lingual portal of health terminologies for indexing and searching Web resources. ...

Semantic Web (SW) languages are supposed to be compatible with each other in a meaningful way, so as to facilitate machine understanding. Recent research, however, shows that the semantics of the standard SW annotation language RDF (as well as its ...
On beyond Gruber: “Ontologies” in today’s biomedical information systems and the limits of OWL
Graphical abstractDisplay Omitted
Highlights- The differences in the semantics of OWL, Frames, and ICD are often misunderstood.
AbstractThe word “ontology” was introduced to information systems when only closed-world reasoning systems were available. It was “borrowed” from philosophy, but literal links to its philosophical meaning were explicitly disavowed. Since then, ...
