Yes, Protégé can be run as an applet. We provide examples of this in the overview section of our Web site. Go to the Project | Configure... menu. On the "Tab Widgets" panel, check the box next to the name of the tab widget plug-in you'd like to see in your project.

Protégé is an extensible, platform-independent environment for creating and editing ontologies and knowledge bases. In the overview section of our Web site, you'll find screenshots of various sections of the User Interface, a more detailed description of the functionality offered, and example projects that run inside of a Web browser.

Protégé runs on pretty much any platform that supports JDK version 1.4. This includes all modern versions of MS Windows (NT/2000/XP), the common versions of Unix including Linux, Solaris, AIX, and HP-UX, and on the Mac OS X.

If you launch Protégé from somewhere other than the installation directory, you must specify the Java property "protege.dir". For example, if you installed Protégé in "C:\Program Files\Protege_3.1", you would type the following on the command line: java -Dprotege.dir="C:\Program Files\Protege_3.1" -jar "C:\Program Files\Protege_3.1\protege.jar"

Yes, the Mayo Clinic has done this. They have instructions on their Web site about how to embed Protégé within Eclipse.

The primary reason for a mentoring relationship is to help the protégé with his or her personal and/or professional development. The Protégé Development Plan is the main document to formalize the specific objectives of the relationship. (Source: The Complete Guide to Mentoring and Coaching) Ingage uses the Protégé Development Plan as a working document between the mentor and protégé.

The matching of the mentor and protégé is initiated by the protégé. The protégé first reviews a selection of mentor profiles on the Ingage web site, and then chooses the mentor they believe will best help them to reach their personal and professional development goals.

HHS is currently evaluating the feasibility of implementing a Mentor/Protégé Program. We do not currently have a program in place. Should the framework of the program be established, a notice would be issued in the Federal Register and FedBizOpps to inform the public and obtain comments

Pellet comes with a DIG server that you can use with Protégé. You can start the DIG server by running pellet-dig.bat on Windows systems and by running pellet-dig.sh on Unix-like systems. You need to make sure that the port number used by Pellet and Protégé is the same. When Pellet DIG server start you will see a message like the following: In Protégé, go to "OWL" menu and select "Preferences".

If they are at a participating campus, please direct them to our web site. In addition, you could forward to them a 'Call to Students' email message, which we have posted on our web site so you can copy and paste it directly into an email message. Please feel free to forward this message to students or place the message on a distribution list of students who are eligible and might be interested in applying as a protégé.

See the documentation section of the Protégé Web site for available documentation. Among other things, you'll find the Protégé User's Guide, a "getting started" tutorial, and information on ontology development.

Protégé supports knowledge base entry in any language or character set but the tool itself is only offered in English.

Most common problem - The plug-in's JAR file was improperly constructed. JavaSoft's "jar" command can be confusing so it's relatively easy to produce a bad JAR file. Since JAR files are packaged using the ZIP file format, you can examine them with any utility that allows you to view ZIP files. On the Windows platform, for example, you can use the WinZip utiltity. Look at the relative pathname entries for your plug-in's classes. If your class FancyWidget is in a package called "edu.

See the documentation section of our Web site for some (minimal) design documentation. Of interest is the section entitled "Design Rationale" on our user documentation page that describes the design decisions most often asked about. Developers may also be interested in the documentation of the Protégé Programming Development Kit on our developer documentation page.

You don't need to sign anything to download, use, or redistribute Protégé. This includes academic, government, and commercial users.

The Protégé-OWL editor is bundled with the "full" installation of Protégé. If you are only interested in creating OWL ontologies, you may choose the "Basic + OWL" option during the install process. Choosing this option will install the core Protégé system, the Protégé-OWL editor, and only those plug-ins that work with OWL ontologies, e.g. OWLViz, OWLDoc, etc.

What the mentoring would involve would be to take you through this whole process step-by-step. A business development manager would give you instructions/assignments/worksheets. For instance the third module is about developing a solution that solves your niche market's compelling problems. From the online research you will have done into your market you will already know the compelling problems faced in that industry ..

Everyone has something to offer as a mentor. Do you have a field that you specialize in or an area that you have excelled in?

Ans: Yes, we can... but we should caution you that there are still a lot of old browsers out there that are not Java-enabled. Older AOL browsers, for example, have a devil of a time with Java. We are frankly looking forward to the time when the whole web is fully utilizing the interactive capabilities of the platform-independent language and world of Java. Ans: We have an excellent form script in our CGI Bin, written in perl.
