The biomedical community has concrete needs of a future Semantic Web. An important issue is to know whether the W3C languages, will meet its requirements. This paper aims at contributing to this question in evaluating two presently available languages, Protégé and DAML+OIL, on an actual ontology under development, the brain cortex ontology. It draws conclusions on their expressiveness, compares it to other ontology languages, in particular to the next standard OWL, and the hybrid language CARIN-ALN, and discusses the main features that should be in a Web language for medical ontologies in view of a Semantic Web. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2003.
