of
products and services, plus

Subject: eClassOWL: E-Business Ontology for Products and Services
available (05)
(apologies for cross-posting) (06)
Dear colleagues: (07)
After about 20 months of work, I am proud to announce the official
release of eClassOWL, a comprehensive lightweight ontology for products
and services in e-business scenarios. The ontology and comprehensive
documentation is freely available at: (08)
http://www.heppnetz.de/eclassowl/ (09)
eClassOWL contains (010)
- more than 75,000 ontology classes for various views on 25,658 types
of
products and services, plus
- 5,525 properties for describing products and services instances, and
- 4,544 value instances for typical enumerative data types. (011)
Due to its size, it may also be used as a benchmark for Semantic Web
infrastructure and tools. (012)
eClassOWL covers 25 top-level categories of products and services, e.g. (013)
- Office supplies, furniture, equipment, and stationary
- Organic and inorganic chemicals
- Automation equipment and electrical engineering
- Information Technology
- Semi-finished products, materials
- Automotive technology
- Tools
- Medicine, medical technology, life science
- Occupational safety and accident prevention
and many more. (014)
A visualization of the scope covered by eClassOWL is available at (015)
http://www.heppnetz.de/eclassowl/coverage.gif (016)
For a full documentation on the content of the ontology, please check
the eClassOWL User's Guide, which is also available at (017)
http://www.heppnetz.de/eclassowl/ (018)
I hope this is a step towards making the Semantic Web a reality. Any
comments and feedback is very welcome. (019)
Best wishes
Martin (020)
