Over the decades he has researched and developed emerging fields of computer science from compiler, programming languages, and system architecture[4] to artificial intelligence and knowledge representation.

Sowa's research interest since the 1970s were in the field of artificial intelligence, expert systems and database query linked to natural languages. In his work he combines ideas from numerous disciplines and eras modern and ancient, for example, applying ideas from Aristotle, the medieval Scholastics to Alfred North Whitehead and including database schema theory, and incorporating the model of analogy of Islamic scholar Ibn Taymiyyah in his works. Currently, Mr. Sowa serves as an Advisor at Kyndi. Sowa invented conceptual graphs, a graphic notation for logic and natural language, based on the structures in semantic networks and on the existential graphs of Charles S. Peirce. He published the concept in the 1976 article "Conceptual graphs for a data base interface" in the IBM Journal of Research and Development. In the 1980s this theory has "been adopted by a number of research and development groups throughout the world. International conferences on conceptual graphs have been held for over a decade since before 1992."
