Semantic Modeling with SUMO
Robert B. Allen
We explore using the Suggested Upper Merged Ontology (SUMO) to develop a semantic simulation. We provide two proof-of-concept demonstrations modeling transitions in a simulated gas…
Definitions and Semantic Simulations Based on Object-Oriented Analysis and Modeling
Robert B. Allen
We have proposed going beyond traditional ontologies to use rich semantics implemented in programming languages for modeling. In this paper, we discuss the application of executabl…
Issues for Using Semantic Modeling to Represent Mechanisms
Robert B Allen
Mechanisms are a fundamental concept in many areas of science. Nonetheless, there has been little effort to develop structures to represent mechanisms. We explore the issues in dev…
Coordinating and Integrating Faceted Classification with Rich Semantic Modeling
Robert B. Allen, Jaihyun Park
Faceted classifications define dimensions for the types of entities included. In effect, the facets provide an "ontological commitment". We compare a faceted thesaurus, the Art and…
XFO: Toward Programming Rich Semantic Models
Robert B. Allen, Teryn K. Jones
We have proposed that ontologies and programming languages should be more closely aligned. Specifically, we have argued that the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO2) has many features that…
Semantic Modeling with Foundries
Robert B. Allen, Yoonhwan Kim
We analyze challenges for the development of the Human Activities and Infrastructures Foundry. We explore a rich semantic modeling approach to describe two Korean ceramic water dro…
