<font face="verdana,sans-serif">Thanks Sebastian. Your comments aim to address my question directly. A reverse transition of the ontologies (I'm specifically interested in biomedical ontologies) to UIMA type system could also do. What is a good starting point/reference for that? It is achievable with few weeks of programming, but is there something I could reuse?<br>

The best way in my opinion would be to feed the ontologies used in NIF (e.g. OLiA or NERD) into the UIMA type system and then do reasoning directly in uima., somehow. </blockquote></div><br>
