Brainstorming and Mind Mapping Software. Make a Mind Map Online! - Mindomo. Open source data structs and semantic frameworks. The Open Semantic Framework is a complete and integrated software stack that combines external open source components with specific enhancements developed by Structured Dynamics.
OSF is a complete foundation to bring semantic technology capabilities to the enterprise. OSF has a variety of potential applications from enterprise information integration to collaboration networks and open government. OSF can integrate and manage all types of content — unstructured documents, semi-structured files, spreadsheets, and structured databases — using a variety of best-of-breed engines. All external content is converted to the canonical RDF data model, enabling common tools and methods for tagging and managing all content. Ontologies provide the schema and common vocabularies for integrating across diverse datasets. Ontology creation for the rest of us… COE is a project whose goal is to develop an integrated suite of software tools for constructing, sharing and viewing OWL encoded ontologies based on CmapTools, a concept mapping software used in educational settings, training, and knowledge capturing.
Concept maps provide a human-centered interface to display the structure, content, and scope of an ontology. Currently, our work focuses on developing conventions for constructing new Cmap OWL ontologies that will assist and guide users when forming class and property relationships among the concepts in the ontology. In addition, we are working on clustering and searching techniques that support the reuse of existing ontologies. An overview presentation is here.
