DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) Unified Modeling Language (UML)-Based Ontology Toolset (UBOT)

Abstract

The objective for the UBOT project was to reduce the barriers for adoption of Semantic Web technology. The target adopters were DoD and Intelligence community software practitioners. The UBOT project focused on three major barriers: Ontology engineering is hard, Semantic markup creation is time consuming and expensive, and Semantic Web application engineering trade-offs are not well understood. The approach to reducing these barriers was to apply software engineering principles: automated tools, formal methods and software architecture. There were four research focus areas in this project: Ontology engineering; Automated markup generation; Reasoning architectures and benchmarks; and Semantic Web architectures and design patterns.
