In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

Abstract

We present a programmatic interface (SKOS API) and editor for working with the Simple Knowledge Organisation System SKOS. The SKOS API has been designed to work with SKOS models at a high level of abstraction to aid developers of applications that use SKOS. We describe a SKOS editor (SKOSEd) that is built on the Protege 4 framework using the OWL and SKOS API. As well as exploring the benets of the principled extensibility afforded by this approach, we also explore the limitations placed upon SKOS by restricting SKOSEd to OWL-DL.
