Abstract
In this paper we describe some commonly-required functionality for constructing, visualizing and manipulating ontologies. These make extensive use of XML and DOM technologies. The functions developed are based on practical applications needing access to distributed statistical databases and intelligent content management. They fulfill the needs identified as new features for next generation ontology development and application. These system features have been implemented in Java and JAXP.
