Abstract
- We propose a diagrammatic logic that is suitable for specifying ontologies. We provide a specification of a simple ontology and include examples to show how to place constraints on ontology specifications and define queries. The framework also allows the depiction of instances, multiple ontologies to be related, and reasoning about ontologies.
