Abstract

In recent years, the field of alternative medicine (Phytotherapy) knew a big evolution and became popular for several reasons. In addition to its high therapeutic value, it does not cost much. We have developed an ontology containingthe most important information on medicinal plantsand the diseasesthey treat. The method used was METHONTOLOGY. It was implemented by the use of the Protégé programand evaluatecl by the useof FaCT++-inference engine. The AachabOnt ontology was saved in the RDF language. To allow users utilize the AachaOnt ontology, we have developed a website that allows research through the use of Jenatechnology and the SPARQL and JSP query languages.
