Thank Cathy and Pat.
Except using Protégé 4, one can open the file using programs such PSPad, even I.E. as XML-like format.
Pat’s suggestions are of great value. They are the most things to do for an ontology development.
The “hasFacilitating” (perhaps using “canFacilitate” is better) is taken here as one of so called meta-properties meaning a kind of active binary relations such as “increase” (in number, power, speed), “activate”, “strengthen”, etc.
The hierarchy structure of the ontology will be reconsidered repeatedly for more consistency. Because usually the axis systems for classification are dependent of each other in their definitions but complicatedly jointed in their extensions, to build the hierarchies of single axis system or less axis systems is always challenging.
I wish to develop a disease-oriented ontology as an open source to support mining of clinical data or e-health references and for medical knowledge engineering researches as well, through the way as following:
Machine-readable clinical data based on standard terminology and models <- communicating applications + computing applications → Machine-readable medical knowledge and machine-readable typical facts (Ontologies).
This version attached is optimized by an intrinsic function of Protégé 4.(see the attachment).
