Abstract

Nowadays, there are more than 50 different ontology development and management tools (ODMT), since domain ontologies become used more and more often in the development of knowledge based information systems (IS). A number of authors propose their criteria to assess ODMT. However, the earlier proposed criteria of ODMT assessment concentrate on the modelling capabilities of the structure of an ontology and user interfaces mainly. In this research, we are interested in the ODMT capability of modelling axioms. Therefore, this paper presents an investigation of ODMT according to the modelling of axioms. We define necessary criteria for the assessment of ODMT and perform an evaluator case study.
