Hi Stuart,

Kepler uses OWL ontology language to describe relationships between actors/components for the actor library. The owl files can be found in your local kepler installation ($Kepler/common-*.*/configs/ptolemy/configs/kepler/ontologies/) or web (https://code.kepler-project.org/code/kepler/trunk/modules/common/configs/ptolemy/configs/kepler/ontologies/).

I'm not sure what do you mean by "relationships between the different components in a workflow". Do you mean the dependencies between actors within a workflow? If so, I don't think we have ontology descriptions for it since the workflow xml specification is already enough.

Best wishes

Sincerely yours

I am working on a proposal to develop an open source electronic laboratory

describes the relationships between the different components in a workflow.  If 
so, where can I download a copy?

Any information greatly appreciated.
