Abstract

This paper reviews and compares some Ontology Development Tools, Formalisms and Languages from those reported in the Literature, with a special attention accorded to the interoperability between them. Additionally, this paper presents the Structure and Basic Features of Tools, Formalisms and languages.

The primary goal of this study is to introduce several tools and languages to ensure more understanding from their use. Consequently,we can solve the problems of current tools and languages and ensure the easy development of a new generation of tools and languages.
