This important new work on applied ontology covers theoretical components, design practices, and practical applications, providing a comprehensive introduction to the field of applied ontology that is of particular relevance to biomedicine. Distinguishing between different kinds of ontologies and taxonomies, the book also presents the core features of the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO), now used by over one hundred ontology projects around the world, and offers examples of domain ontologies that utilize BFO. Drawing on concepts not only from computer and information science but also from linguistics, logic, and philosophy, Building Ontologies is a long-overdue guide to the theoretical foundations and practical principles of using ontologies to categorize scientific knowledge.
