IBM Integrated Ontology Development Toolkit

IODT is a toolkit for ontology-driven development. This toolkit includes EMF Ontolgy Definition Metamodel (EODM) and an OWL ontology repository named Scalable Ontology Repository (SOR).

IODT includes the following components, which can be downloaded and used independently or cooperatively:

  • EODM is the run-time library that allows the application to read and serialize an RDFS/OWL ontology in RDF/XML format; manipulate an ontology using Java™ objects; call an inference engine and access inference results; and transform between ontology and other models.
  • The OWL ontology repository, named Scalable Ontology Repository (SOR), is a high-performance OWL storage, inference, and query system based on RDBMS. It supports DLP (Description Logic Program), a subset of OWL DL, and the SPARQL language.


The IODT is developed by the IBM_RESEARCH.
