| Annoation |
| Presents a comparative analysis of various knowledge |
| representation formalisms (ontology languages) in light of their |
| applicability to the web based information interchange. Also |
| discusses the use of new web standards for machine |
| understandable web data to construct ontologies (RDF and XML). |
| The languages discussed are CycL and KIF (first order predicate |
| logic), Ontolingua and Frame Logic (frame based approach), |
| Description Logic. |
| XOL by http://smi-web.stanford.edu/projects/bio-ontology has |
| been discussed as an XML based ontology language but since it |
| does not support rules and constraints, the proposal for Ontology |
| Interchange Language (OIL) is briefly mentioned. |
