Ontology Adapter: OWL
Developer: Björn Endres
Description
This adapter simply provides access to OWL ontologies.
Characteristics
Since getSubclass() relations are not explicitly stored in OWL ontologies, they will be calculated for all classes upon the first call. This is very costy and should be avoided if possible.
Evaluation/Performance
n/a
Specification
