ppy/oor-metadata-08_chat-transcript_edited_20130702b.txt ------ Chat transcript from room: oor_20130702 2013-07-02 GMT-08:00 [PDT] ------ [06:43] Welcome to the = OpenOntologyRepository: Metadata Workshop-VIII - Tue 2013_07_02 = * Topic: OOR Metadata Workshop-VIII: Metadata in Ontology Mapping - II * Session Co-chairs: MichaelGruninger (U of Toronto) & MikeBennett (EDM Council) * Agenda: The plan for today's session is to have MikeBennett give an overview of FIBO in terms of its various possible modules, and MichaelGruninger will follow and present an attempt to capture these relationships using ontology metadata. We will then have a discussion/workshop focusing on metadata for OOR. This effort, hopefully, will get us a step closer to the team consensus from our 18-Jun-2013 OOR-Strategy meeting that we will focused on developing three things (hopefully within the next 3 months)- namely, (i) the set of metadata, (ii) the API, and (iii) some shared thoughts on the UI across different nodes/instances of the OOR network of ontology repositories. * Session page: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2013_07_02 * Mute control: *7 to un-mute ... *6 to mute (please make sure your own phone is not muted as well) * Can't find Skype Dial pad? ... it's under the "Call" dropdown menu as "Show Dial pad" Attendees: MichaelGruninger (co-chair), MikeBennett (co-chair), AliHashemi, AmandaVizedom (on chat only), BobSmith, DavidEddy, KenBaclawski, PeterYim (scribe), ToddSchneider, LamarHenderson. == Proceedings == [7:02] PeterYim: == Co-chairs MichaelGruininger and MikeBennett starts the session ... [7:03] anonymous morphed into AliHashemi [7:07] anonymous morphed into DavidEddy [7:07] PeterYim: on the call now, are: AliHashemi, BobSmith, DavidEddy, LamarHenderson, MichaelGruninger, MikeBennett, PeterYim & ToddSchneider [7:09] ToddSchneider: [ ref. Mike's slide#4 ] Mike, How should we interpret 'use case neutral'? [7:36] MikeBennett: @Todd by use case neutral I mean that as an industry standard, it is not a model designed to support a single use case, but needs to provide for current and future use cases. [7:16] PeterYim: AmandaVizedom joined (a little earlier) [7:16] AmandaVizedom: (I'm not on the call yet - technical difficulties -- be there soon) [7:19] PeterYim: Tx, Amanda [7:25] AmandaVizedom: Apologies, technical difficulties not resolving. I will have to listen to recording later. [7:28] PeterYim: [ ref. MikeBennett's slide#9 ] the OMG Specification Metadata (SM) Vocabulary (owl file) is at - http://www.omg.org/techprocess/ab/20130301/SpecificationMetadata.owl [7:32] PeterYim: for information about CTS2 -vs- OMV see proceedings of the "OOR-Metadata Workshop-V" at: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2012_01_17 [7:38] PeterYim: @Mike - how does the OMG's Specification Metadata (SM) Vocabulary relate to the Common Terminology Services 2 (CTS2) by HL7 & OMG [7:43] PeterYim: @MikeBennett - is there some work at OMG that documents a comparison between their Specification Metadata (SM) Vocabulary to the NeOn Ontology Metadata Vocabulary (OMV) [7:43] MikeBennett: @Peter I don't know - Elisa Kendall would be the person to ask (I was hoping she could join us today) [7:44] MikeBennett: @Peter I also don't know how SM relates to HL7 etc. [7:44] PeterYim: Thanks, Mike [7:39] MikeBennett: Other considerations: in referencing between kinds of model generally, there are separate dimensions to consider: model relationship to what is modeled (real things v digital resources); formal grounding of model elements (FOL versus Object Orientation for example); and model abstraction levels. Not sure how much of that is relevant to OOR but it's a consideration in models alignment generally I think. [7:40] MikeBennett: Other considerations: we used some basic upper ontology partitions based on JohnSowa, which have been removed in the OMG submission but are still important. Can we make better reference to other upper ontology partitions, especially those in DOLCE. Also can we make better use of published work on mereology etc. in place of some of our more provisional patterns. [7:41] MikeBennett: Use of DOL - we would like to know more about that. [7:47] MikeBennett: The REA ontology is published in UML form at present. We have however done some extensive remodelling of this using OWL axioms, with reference to the more abstract partitions in FIBO. [7:48] MikeBennett: (we need to finalize that work with BillMcCarthy - I think we are ready to publish but he needs to vet it first). [7:50] ToddSchneider: Michael, w.r.t. the OOR design/implementation, one 'use' of the metadata is to communicate actions (e.g., queries) and perhaps directly drive the UI. [8:02] MichaelGruninger: Rather than adopt a single ontology metadata ontology, OOR should be flexible enough to use the multiple metadata ontologies that are available. Of course, we will need to ensure that these ontologies are mutually consistent, and we will need to understand their relationships [7:53] MichaelGruninger: [Action Item] Detailed study of the relationships between the ontology metadata ontologies (OMV, OMG SM, CTS2) [7:57] MichaelGruninger: [Action Item] Detailed analysis of FIBO Annotation Vocabulary [7:58] MikeBennett: [Action item] understand the implications of how e.g. FIBO re-framed DC terms as OWL Annotation Properties and instances thereof (annotation facts). [8:00] ToddSchneider: Have to go. Thank you. Cheers. [8:09] PeterYim: @MikeBennett and All - can we get "other ontologies" that you would want FIBO to work with onto a OOR instance, so that they are all "logically" in one place (which is OOR's core value proposition) that would be nice - more tangibly, could we get (a) the REA ontology, (b) the OMG Date Time Vocabulary, and (c) others you can think of, into (i) the OOR-sandbox, and (ii) Ontohub ... and then we start working out what metadata, what value-added services, will be most helpful [8:09] AliHashemi: I've got to run. Thanks! [8:10] MichaelGruninger: The Common Logic axiomatization of OMG Date Time Vocabulary is already in COLORE [8:11] MikeBennett: Great! [8:12] MichaelGruninger: [Action Item] Upload FIBO Foundations into OntoHub [8:13] MikeBennett: 26 Aug version is the one to upload for FIBO-Foundations [8:13] MikeBennett: but we can upload what's there right now, if we like, as a sandbox [8:14] PeterYim: @Mike & Michael - since we are still experimenting, can be upload, in parallel to Ontohub, OOR-sandbox, COLORE, etc. whichever is appropriate [8:14] MikeBennett: I would like to see if we can work more closely with the COLORE effort going forward. [8:15] MikeBennett: There is an ongoing conversation at OMG about URIs. This covers both versioning, and a new idea from HaroldSolbrig about a URI fragment for "real things", as an OMG recommendations. [8:20] DavidEddy: Versioning, change control is absolutely critical. The work of keeping these various tools will never be maintained manually. The process of keeping ontology/vocabulary/semantic information MUST be woven into the normal work process. Extra work will not happen. [8:21] DavidEddy: It appears versioning is way early, so don't spend time working about it. There are dozens of versioning tools. Just make sure you keep the door open for versioning to happen. [8:31] PeterYim: session plan confirmed - Thu 2013.07.18 OntologyBasedStandards mini-series planning session - co-chairs: MichaelGruninger (cfmd) & ElisaKendall (tbc) [8:34] PeterYim: we will plan out possible events for 7/23 & 7/30 in the next OOR meeting (Jul-9) [8:33] PeterYim: [consensus] the OOR team will take August-2013 off ... (like the Ontolog community) no OOR events/meetings will be scheduled during that month [8:33] LamarHenderson: Will slides be posted? [8:37] PeterYim: @LamarHenderson - today's slides are already available at: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2013_07_02#nid3UYT [8:35] PeterYim: very productive session ... thanks!
