All the entities in the ontology are linked to each other by explicitly modeled named relationship that will enable software applications to accurately interpret data annotated with this ontology. For example, “Trypanosoma_cruzi→has_vector_organism(named relationship)→triatominae”. The parasite life cycle ontology is modeled in the World Wide Web consortium (W3C) Web Ontology Language (OWL) standard and currently has 41 classes and 5 properties with a description logic (DL) expressivity of ALU. The ontology, along with its Wiki-based resource page will be released for listing and public use at NCBO in the latter half of this month (February, 2009). We expect this ontology to replace the current prototype ontology modeling parasite life cycle for which development effort has apparently been discontinued since 2002.
