Re: [ontolog-forum] glossary of ontology terminology

[paola.dimaio@xxxxxxxxx]

that's great thanks
I saw that - its one of the few usable references I found and it shows that people stopped updating it several years ago ...., applied ontology is not in the gloss .... 

I think a wiki page would help...starting from there perhaps...and opening it up for contributions?

I need credible definitions for commonly used terms and I am not finding enough... argh...
it looks like I'll have to make things up myself ... 

 how should I define  applied ontology and as opposed to what?
help!


thanks

PDM.

Paola,

As part of an ontology project by an NCITS working group
several years ago, we developed a glossary, which I compiled
and the group discussed.  It hasn't been updated for a while,
but it still has useful definitions.  It has been posted in
several versions, one of which is in the appendix of the
following paper:

    http://www.jfsowa.com/ontology/ontoshar.htm
    Building, Sharing, and Merging Ontologies

This paper is the first of several in the following list:

    http://www.jfsowa.com/ontology/guided.htm
    Guided Tour of Ontology

The NCITS working group put their papers in the public domain,
and I would give my permission for anything I added -- provided
that I have a chance to check anything attributed to me.
