We want to formally capture at least some of this knowledge within a virtual workbench and middleware framework to assist a wider range of biologists in utilizing these resources. Different activities require different representations of knowledge. Finding or substituting a service within a workflow is often best supported by a classification. Marshalling and configuring services is best accomplished using a formal description. Both representations are highly interdependent and maintaining consistency between the two by hand is difficult. We report on a description logic approach using the web ontology language DAML+OIL that uses property based service descriptions. The ontology is founded on DAML-S to dynamically create service classifications. These classifications are then used to support semantic service matching and discovery in a large grid based middleware project [Formula: see text]. We describe the extensions necessary to DAML-S in order to support bioinformatics service description; the utility of DAML+OIL in creating dynamic classifications based on formal descriptions; and the implementation of a DAML+OIL ontology service to support partial user-driven service matching and composition. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218843003000711","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,3,18]],"date-time":"2003-03-18T11:24:52Z","timestamp":1047986692000},"page":"197-224","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":100,"title":["A SUITE OF DAML+OIL ONTOLOGIES TO DESCRIBE BIOINFORMATICS WEB SERVICES AND DATA"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"CHRIS","family":"WROE","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, University of Manchester, Oxford Rd, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ROBERT","family":"STEVENS","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, University of Manchester, Oxford Rd, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"CAROLE","family":"GOBLE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, University of Manchester, Oxford Rd, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ANGUS","family":"ROBERTS","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, University of Manchester, Oxford Rd, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"MARK","family":"GREENWOOD","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, University of Manchester, Oxford Rd, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,1,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"rf1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1147\/sj.402.0532"},{"key":"rf2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/3-540-44681-8_1"},{"key":"rf3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-2836(05)80360-2"},{"key":"rf4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1147\/sj.402.0489"},{"key":"rf7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0168-9525(00)02024-2"},{"key":"rf8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1147\/sj.402.0570"},{"key":"rf16","first-page":"239","volume":"38","author":"Rector A.
