For over a decade, work on Formal Concept Analysis has been accompanied by the development of the
Toscana
software.
Toscana
was implemented to realize the idea of
Conceptual Information Systems
which allow the analysis of data using concept-oriented methods. Over the years, many ideas from Formal Concept Analysis have been tested in
Toscana
systems while the real-world problems encountered led to new theoretical research. After ten years of development, the
ToscanaJ
project was initiated to solve some outstanding problems of the older
Toscana
versions. The
ToscanaJ
suite provides programs for creating and using Conceptual Information Systems. The experience with older
Toscana
implementations has been applied to the design of the programs. A workflow that developed through many
Toscana
projects has now been integrated into the tools to make them easier to use. Implemented as an Open-Source project and embedded into the larger Tockit project,
ToscanaJ
is also a starting point for creating a common base for software development for Formal Concept Analysis. In this paper, we present the features of the
ToscanaJ
suite and how they can be used to implement Conceptual Information Systems.
