LibKiSAO: a Java Library for Querying KiSAO

LibKiSAO is a KiSAO-specific adaptor between OWL and Java: a Java library providing methods to make queries to KiSAO from within Java programs.

LibKiSAO is built on top of the OWL API and uses HermiT reasoner. LibKiSAO is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).

libKiSAO.jar is a stand-alone version of libKiSAO that can be used from within other Java programs. It contains all the required libraries.
libKiSAO-src.jar contains the source code.
javadoc/* folder contains java documentation.
example/* folder contains examples, showing how libKiSAO might be used.

Java Documentation is available as a part of libKiSAO.zip archive or online.

LibKiSAO provides methods for:

Retrieving algorithm information: algorithm name, synonymous names, definition, MIRIAM URI, and references to the articles, describing the algorithm.
Searching for algorithms: by names, synonymous names, MIRIAM URIs and identifiers.
Querying algorithm hierarchy: searching for descendant (derived from, more specific) algorithms and ancestor (more general) ones, checking if one algorithm is descendant of another.
Retrieving algorithms by characteristic(s): searching for algorithms, which have/lack given characteristic(s).
Querying for algorithm characteristics: retrieving information about characteristics, possessed by the given algorithm.
Querying for algorithm parameters: retrieving information about simulation algorithm parameters and their types.
Querying for similar algorithms: retrieving algorithms with the same characteristics (all or only for specified category (e.g. system description)) as the given one.
