| Popis | When searching the World Wide Web for information we use search engines such as Google, Yahoo! or Bing. Full text search works well when finding some articles or documents, but it will not directly answer the questions as ”How much something costs?” or ”Where can I go for lunch?”. Wanted information can be available on the Web as web pages or data (from services) but both without semantics. Ontologies are proposed by W3C to enable inclusion of semantics in web pages. This paper presents Knoocks visualization plug-in for Protege-OWL editor. The Knoocks approach combines the traditional ontology visualization (e.g., node-link or space-filling) strategies to enhance understandability of OWL Lite ontologies. The re-implementation of Knoocks as a plug-in for Protege-OWL extends the editor with a new ontology visualization technique and makes the Knoocks visualization publicly available for users. The Knoocks plug-in is good at visualizing of non-trivial ontologies. |
