  1. Protege API • Description • Features • Architecture • Disadvantages • Comparison with other APIs • Code Example

  2. Description • The Protégé-OWL API is an open-source Java library for the Web Ontology Language and RDF(S). • The API provides classes and methods to load and save OWL files, to query and manipulate OWL data models, and to perform reasoning. • Protégé ontology development platform can be extended by way of a plug-in architecture and Java-based Application Programming Interface (API) for building knowledge-based tools and applications.

  3. Features • Provided with the standard Protege installation. • Has good compatibility with Protege. • You can edit ontologies , access description logic DL reasoners. • For example, we can create new classes and instances programmatically. • Furthermore, the API is optimized for the implementation of graphical user interfaces. • Like other Java APIs, the libraries are needed to be imported in the source code of the application. • The Protege OWL API seems to sit on top of JENA API however it uses Jena only for parsing and provides a Jena view. • By basing the OWL Plugin on top of Protege, we could also reuse Protege's client-server based multi-user mode that allows multiple people to edit the same ontology at the same time .
