Functional Units: Abstractions for Web Service Annotations
Paolo Missier,Katy Wolstencroft,Franck Tanoh,Peter Li,Sean Bechhofer,Khalid Belhajjame,Steve Pettifer,Carole Goble +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce functional units (FU) as elementary units of information used to describe a service, and propose techniques for automating the service annotations process by analysing collections of workflows that use those services.
Populous: A Tool for Populating Templates for OWL Ontologies.
Simon Jupp,Matthew Horridge,Luigi Iannone,Julie Klein,Stuart Owen,Joost P. Schanstra,Robert Stevens,Katy Wolstencroft +7 more
TL;DR: Populous presents users with a table based form in which columns are constrained to take values from particular ontologies; the user can select a concept from an ontology via its meaningful label to give a value for a given entity attribute.

RightField: scientific knowledge acquisition by stealth through ontology-enabled spreadsheets
Katy Wolstencroft,Stuart Owen,Matthew Horridge,Wolfgang Mueller,Finn Bacall,Jacky L. Snoep,Franco B. du Preez,Quyen Nguyen,Olga Krebs,Carole Goble +9 more
TL;DR: RightField is a Java application that provides a mechanism for embedding ontology annotation support for scientific data in Microsoft Excel or Open Office spreadsheets, with an annotation process that is less error-prone, more efficient, and more consistent with community standards.
