A Survey on Ontology Evaluation Tools

Ontologies play an important role for the semantic web which aims at capturing domain knowledge and provide a commonly agreed understanding of a domain, which may be reused and shared across applications and groups. Developing and deploying large-scale ontology solutions typically involves several separate tasks and requires applying multiple tools. Different tools from different sources need to inter operate and are integrated into frameworks. These frameworks must be open to other commercial environments and provide connectors and interfaces to industrial standards. In this paper we propose an evaluation framework for properties of ontologies and technologies for developing and deploying ontologies.
