RESOLVED: Metamodel for OWL 2
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- Raised by:
- Peter Haase
- Opened on:
- 2008-07-23
- Description:
- The current structural specification includes a number of UML diagrams. While thus far not made explicit, these diagrams are intended to be compliant with the MOF (MetaObject Facility). The specification of a language in terms of a MOF metamodel allows for a more precise formal specification, provides a machine readable format of the specification and enables the use of a range of MOF-based software tools.
We therefore propose to make the use of MOF for the structural specification explicit by:
1) stating that the UML diagrams in the Structural Syntax document are consistent with a MOF compliant specification of the structural syntax
2) potentially adding a machine-readable serialization and high-level documentation of a MOF metamodel for OWL 2 as an additional document
This specification might also serve as a starting point for the standardization of an OWL 2 metamodel within the ODM WG of the OMG.

Related notes:
We don't expect to have a MOF metamodel in a Rec-Track document. Maybe a Note someday.
