TL;DR: The Generic Frame Protocol is an application program interface for accessing knowledge bases stored in frame knowledge representation systems (FRSs) that isolates an application from many of the idiosyncrasies of specific FRS software and enables the development of generic tools that operate on many FRSs.

Abstract: The Generic Frame Protocol (GFP) is an application program interface for accessing knowledge bases stored in frame knowledge representation systems (FRSs) GFP provides a uniform model of FRSs based on a common conceptualization of frames, slots, facets, and inheritance GFP consists of a set of Common Lisp functions that provide a generic interface to underlying FRSs This interface isolates an application from many of the idiosyncrasies of specific FRS software and enables the development of generic tools (eg, graphical browsers, frame editors) that operate on many FRSs To date, GFP has been used as an interface to LOOM, Ontolingua, THEO, and SIPE-2

The Ontolingua Server
TL;DR: The Ontolingua Server as mentioned in this paper is a set of tools and services to support the process of achieving consensus on commonly shared ontologies by geographically distributed groups, and it allows users to publish, browse, create and edit ontologies stored on an ontology server.

An ontology for biological function based on molecular interactions
TL;DR: The article explores the notion of computing with function, and explains the importance of ontologies of function to bioinformatics, and presents the functional ontology developed for the EcoCyc database.
A Roadmap to Ontology Specification Languages
Oscar Corcho,Asunción Gómez-Pérez +1 more
- 02 Oct 2000
TL;DR: This paper establishes a common framework to compare the expressiveness and reasoning capabilities of "traditional" ontology languages (Ontolingua, OKBC, OCML, FLogic, LOOM) and "web-based" ontological languages, and concludes with the results of applying this framework to the selected languages.
WebODE: a scalable workbench for ontological engineering
Julio César Arpírez,Oscar Corcho,Mariano Fernández-López,Asunción Gómez-Pérez +3 more
- 22 Oct 2001
TL;DR: This paper presents WebODE as a workbench for ontological engineering that not only allows the collaborative edition of ontologies at the knowledge level, but also provides a scalable architecture for the development of other ontology development tools and ontology-based applications.
Collaborative Ontology Construction for Information Integration
Adam Farquhar,Richard Fikes,Wanda Pratt,James Rice +3 more
- 01 Jan 2007
TL;DR: This work has developed a set of tools and services to support the process of achieving consensus on such a common shared ontologies by geographically distributed groups and describes applications using these tools to achieve consensus on ontologies and to integrate information.

A translation approach to portable ontology specifications
TL;DR: This paper describes a mechanism for defining ontologies that are portable over representation systems, basing Ontolingua itself on an ontology of domain-independent, representational idioms.

Foundations of a functional approach to knowledge representation.
TL;DR: A new approach to knowledge representation where knowledge bases are characterized not in terms of the structures they use to represent knowledge, but functionally, in Terms of what they can be asked or told about some domain, which cleanly separates functionality from implementation structure.

The evolving technology of classification-based knowledge representation systems
Robert Mac Gregor
- 01 Jan 1991
TL;DR: This chapter attempts to characterize the technology that has evolved within the KL-ONE family of knowledge representation systems, which are logic based, they support a specialized term-forming language, and they implement a specialized reasoner called a term classifier.

- 29 Nov 1994
TL;DR: This research investigates the hypothesis that one can employ an existing database management system (DBMS) as a storage subsystem for an FRS, to provide high-speed access to large, shared KBs.
