The new public review draft of the document "ebXML Registry Profile for Web Ontology Language (OWL) Version 1.5" has been released. Being produced by the OASIS ebXML Registry Semantic Content Management Subcommittee, it defines a new version of the ebXML profile used for publishing, management, discovery and reuse of the ontologies developed by the OWL Lite standards. This document tries to define the normative ebXML Registry Profile for the OWL (Web Ontology Language) Lite. It has the purpose to normatively specify how the OWL Lite constructs are

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) issued Web Ontology Language (OWL) as a W3C Candidate Recommendation. Candidate Recommendation is an explicit call for implementations, indicating that the document has been reviewed by all other W3C Working Groups, that the specification is stable, and appropriate for implementation.OWL is a language for defining structured, Web-based ontologies which enable richer integration and interoperability of data across application boundaries. Early adopters of these standards include bioinformatics and medical communities,

An ontology defines the terms used to describe and represent an area of knowledge. Ontologies are critical for applications that need to search across or merge information from diverse communities. Although XML DTDs and XML Schemas are sufficient for exchanging data between parties who have agreed to the definitions beforehand, their lack of semantics prevents machines from reliably performing this task with new XML vocabularies. The Semantic Web is a vision for the future of the Web in which information is given explicit meaning, making it easier

OASIS announced the publication of a public review draft for the "ebXML Registry Profile for Web Ontology Language (OWL) Version 1.5" specification, ending 11-February-2007. Produced by members of the OASIS ebXML Registry Semantic Content Management Subcommittee, this document defines the ebXML Registry profile for publishing, management, discovery, and reuse of OWL Lite Ontologies. The SC was chartered to define use cases and requirements for managing semantic content within the ebXML Registry 4.0, seeking to establish a formal liaison with relevant
