[cellml-discussion] OWL

[James Lawson]

Dear Randy,

Thanks for asking. Unfortunately that roadmap is somewhat embarrassing 
for us. We are currently undertaking a major reworking of the website, 
and once we finish setting out our plans, the roadmap is right at the 
top of my list of pages to rewrite. In the meantime, let me see if I can 
explain what we're up to with respect to OWL and ontologies. 
Unfortunately, the CellML team member who was primarily responsible for 
this project, and whose commentary you can find under the wiki section 
of the site on ontologies, is no longer with us. I have begun to take up 
the rope on this, but I am still really working on upskilling myself.

Sarala Dissanayake is working on writing up her PhD thesis, in which she 
presents her work on developing CellML-OWL. CellML-OWL aims to provide 
infrastructure for ontologies that can be used for annotation of models 
with biological and biophysical information. Sarala has developed a tool 
for visualisation of CellML models using CellML-OWL as well.

I'd direct you to Sarala (sarala.dissanayake at auckland.ac.nz) for more 
information on our current development in OWL and ontologies.

Kind regards,
James Lawson
