Abstract
The Delivery Context Ontology provides a formal model of the characteristics of the environment in which devices interact with the Web. The delivery context includes the characteristics of the device, the software used to access the Web and the network providing the connection among others.
The delivery context is an important source of information that can be used to adapt materials materials from the Web to make them useable on a wide range of different devices with different capabilities.
The ontology is formally specified in the Web Ontology Language [OWL]. This document describes the ontology and gives details of each property that it contains.
The core, normative sections of this document are generated automatically from the ontology itself.
1 Introduction
The Delivery Context Ontology provides a formal model of the characteristics of the environment in which devices interact with the Web. The delivery context includes the characteristics of the device, the software used to access the Web and the network providing the connection among others.
The delivery context is an important source of information that can be used to adapt materials materials from the Web to make them useable on a wide range of different devices with different capabilities.
1.1 Definition of the Ontology
The ontology is formally specified in OWL[OWL]. The core, normative sections of this document are generated automatically from the ontology itself.
The ontology conforms to the OWL-DL expressivity. This allows it to be used within appropriately written reasoning systems.
1.1.1 Disjoint Classes
The ontology contains a large number of disjoint classes. OWL-DL requires explicit definition of each disjoint relationship between classes. The number of such definitions becomes unmanageably large in ontololgies with a large number of classes.
Fortunately, there is an alternative mechanism for ensuring that classes are considered disjoint, without requiring the use of explicit statements. The mechanism relies on defining unique names for each class. The name is used as the value of a property included explicitly in each class for this purpose. The mechanism is referenced in the OWL Guide[OWL] in the discussion on disjoint classes. An illustration of the technique appears in [OWL-Test] in the section on Positive Entailment Test.
| Editorial note: Rhys | 16/8/2007 |
| The initial set of properties for the ontology were modelled on those in UAProf version 2. Subsequent discussion has enriched the set of properties currently defined. A number of groups are in the process of creating sets of properties for inclusion in the ontology. As a result it is likely that the properties will change. It's likely that the structure of the ontontology will change in the light of new properties being added. Readers should not assume that this version represents any concensus about the content or the structure of the ontology. It does, however, represent a starting point for discussion. It also illustrates a number of basic features that such an ontology needs to provide. It seems likely that the overall structure and approach is likely to prove appropriate. |
1.2 Reading the Specification
1.2.1.1 Normative and Informative Parts
The normative and informative parts of this specification are identified
by use of labels within various sections. Generally, everything in the
specification is considered to be normative, apart from the
examples.
1.2.1.2 Normative Language for Conformance Requirements
Individual conformance requirements or testable statements are identified
by the use of specific key words.
In particular, the key words must, must not,
required, shall, shall not,
should, should not,
recommended, may, and optional in
this specification are to be interpreted as described in [IETF RFC 2119].
1.3 Documentation Conventions
This section describes the structure and layout of the sections that document the ontology. The delivery context is essentially hierarchical. The hierarchy is defined in 27 The Paths to the Characteristics. Despite the hierarchical nature of the delivery context, every individual property has an unique name.
Properties are associated with classes within the ontology. Each top level class is documented in its own chapter. Subclasses are documented within the chapter for their superclass. Cross references within this document link properties, classes and examples of their use.
1.3.1 Reading the Property Tables
Each class in the ontology is associated with a set of properties. These properties are defined in tables in the appropriate section of the specification. Each row in a table defines a single property in terms of a number of fields. The fields used in these tables are described as follows:
- Name
This field contains the formal name of the property within the class.
- Type
This field contains the type of the property. Datatype properties have types that are not themselves classes. Examples include xsd:int, xsd:boolean, xsd:string and xsd:float. Object properties have types that are classes. Usually these classes are themselves defined in the ontology.
- Description
This field contains a description of the property.
- Occurs
This field defines the cardinality of the property. The number of occurences of the property within the class is shown as an expression. For example, the expression ≥ 0 and ≤ 1 indicates that a property is optional. It's cardinality is 0 or 1. Similarly, the expression =1 indicates that a property always occurs exactly once.
- Value(s)
This field holds values that apply across every instance of a class.
Some property values are fixed for every instance of a class. Where this is the case, the value shown in the Value(s) field is prefixed by the phrase Class Value:. For example, every instance of the class Meters, which represents a physical length in meters, has a unitName property with the value "meter".
Some properties can hold values from a specific, predefined set. Where this is the case, the value shown in the Value(s) field is prefixed by the phrase One of:. For example, the Orientation class, which represents the orientation of features such as displays or cameras, has an orientationName property which can take only the values "portrait", "landscape" or "square".
- Alternate Names
This field defines the alternative names for the property. Alternative names might be useful in different programming environments for consistency with conventions.
1.3.2 Reading the Example Tables
Examples are given for specific classes in the specification. The associated tables contain one or more example classes, complete with values for each of their properties. The fields used in these tables are described as follows:
- Example Instance
This field contains the identification of the instance that provides the example.
- Property Name
This field contains the formal name of the property whose value is shown as part of the example.
- Type
This field contains the type of the property in the example. Datatype properties have types that are not themselves classes. Examples include xsd:int, xsd:boolean, xsd:string and xsd:float. Object properties have types that are classes. Usually these classes are themselves defined in the ontology.
- Value(s)
This field contains the value(s) of the property. Where a property has a cardinality of >1, multiple values may be shown in the example.
