The ELK reasoner is based on Java and can be controlled using the OWL API, Protégé, the Snow Owl ontology editor, or a basic command line interface. ELK is available under the Apache License 2.0.
ELK is very fast. It can classify the SNOMED CT ontology with around 300,000 classes in less than 4 seconds on a modern laptop (details can be found in a technical report). This is achieved by highly optimized consequence-based reasoning algorithms that can also take advantage of multi-core CPUs.
ELK can be run in all operating systems that support Java 1.6 or above, but early releases do not yet support all features of OWL 2 EL. For further details, please see the online documentation. The ELK reasoner discussion group is available for further discussions.
