Multiscale Cross-Domain Thermochemical Knowledge-Graph.

In this paper, we develop a set of software agents which improve a knowledge-graph containing thermodynamic data of chemical species by means of quantum chemical calculations and error-canceling balanced reactions. The knowledge-graph represents species-associated information by making use of the principles of linked data, as employed in the Semantic Web, where concepts correspond to vertices and relationships between the concepts correspond to edges of the graph. We implement this representation by means of ontologies, which formalize the definition of concepts and their relationships, as a critical step to achieve interoperability between heterogeneous data formats and software.

An Ontology and Semantic Web Service for Quantum Chemistry Calculations.

The purpose of this article is to present an ontology, termed OntoCompChem, for quantum chemistry calculations as performed by the Gaussian quantum chemistry software, as well as a semantic web service named MolHub. The OntoCompChem ontology has been developed based on the semantics of concepts specified in the CompChem convention of Chemical Markup Language (CML) and by extending the Gainesville Core (GNVC) ontology. MolHub is developed in order to establish semantic interoperability between different tools used in quantum chemistry and thermochemistry calculations, and as such is integrated into the J-Park Simulator (JPS)-a multidomain interactive simulation platform and expert system.
