Hi Bill and Mark et al.,
I also went the EXPO site (http://sourceforge.net/projects/expo/) and
found the EXPO ontology in OWL format (I agree that it's quite hidden).
I have unzipped it and make it available at:
http://twiki.med.yale.edu/kei_web/sw_group/EXPO04-19-06.owl
It might be interesting to compare this with FUGE.
Cheers,
-Kei

This was a new one on me too, Mark. It was posted to Slashdot the
other day, and the Sorceforge site the article points to is
essentially empty.

As you might gather, EXPO is not a very good term to search in all
the usual suspect search engines - INSPEC, PubMed, IEEE XPlore,
CiteSeer.IST, and Google/Google Scholar. Only a very few specific
studies using EXPO in the title came up in:
PubMed:
CT-expo--a novel program for dose evaluation in CT
Rofo. 2002 Dec;174(12):1570-6.
INSPEC:
The extended Poincare generating function type (EXPO)
Extrasolar Planet Observatory (ExPO)
EXPO is the integration of two programs, EXTRA and SIRPOW.92 and is a
program for full powder decomposition and crystal structure solution.
ACL Anthology of research papers in Comp. Linguistics
A FORMAL GRAMMAR OF EXPRESSIVENESS FOR SACRED LEGENDS
acl.ldc.upenn.edu/C/C80/C80-1023.pdf
(an absolutely fascinating manuscript in no way related to this
research project)
There is certainly much interesting and relevant research going on in
this center at the University of Aberystwyth (http://www.aber.ac.uk/
compsci/Research/bio/grants.shtml), but I wasn't able to find an
specific reference to EXPO anywhere, though clearly it could be the
result of research in any one of several of the projects listed.
In the end, I just gave up.
Cheers,
Bill

A colleague just pointed me to this (rather vacuous) article. Does
anyone know more about this work?
