| Acronyme | BIPOM |
| Description | BiPOm is an ontology based on systemic representation of metabolic processes. BiPOm is an ontological model carrying the main biological processes and molecular roles/functions at a high level of genericity where the usual annotated resources are treated as instances.<br>BiPOm, 1) contains biological knowledge as instances and 2) uses automatic reasoning through Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL) in order to automatically infer, formalize and refine properties of molecules. |
