Issues Descriptions

Title of Section 11.2.2 should use "Literal", not "RDFSLiteral"

  • Key: ODM12-134
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    The title of Section 11.2.2 is "RDFSLiteral (Augmented Definition)". Class RDFSLiteral has been renamed to Literal, so the title should change.

ODM does not specify how to use triples

  • Key: ODM12-131
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    Triples are necessary to state certain semantics in the metamodel (as opposed to the profile). For example, property assertions must be expressed using triples. The metamodel sections do not state how and when triples are to be used.

    This issue requests that documentation be added to metamodel sections describing how to use triples.

There is a general lack of composition relationships for model management – in both the RDF and OWL metamodels

  • Key: ODM12-55
  • Legacy Issue Number: 16039
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)

    There is a general lack of composition relationships for model management – in both the RDF and OWL metamodels

Serializing a self-contained model is problematic

  • Key: ODM12-130
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    Because of the composition relationships in the current RDF and OWL metamodels, it is not possible to create a model that:

    1. contains an instance of class Namespace, and
    2. has an XMI serialization with a single root element that owns, directly or indirectly, all the other elements in the model.

    Class NamedGraph is the only class that can own Namespace (that is, the association between NamedGraph and Namespace is the only composite association involving Namespace). Therefore, a model with an instance of Namespace must either be serialized with a root element of Namespace or NamedGraph. In either case, the serialization cannot contain a Source or a NamespaceDefinition. No associations in the metamodel allow a Namespace or a NamedGraph to own a Source or a NamespaceDefinition, either directly or indirectly.

    Conversely, a model with a Source has no serialization in which the Source can own, directly or indirectly, a Namespace.

    The serialization of an ontology represented using the metamodel must contain (at least) two instances of metamodel classes. This is problematic for ECore, where the persistent representation of an ontology must exist in multiple files.

Section 10.2.4's description of an RDFSResource is misleading

  • Key: ODM12-129
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    Section 10.4.2 states:

    All things described by RDF are called resources. This is the class of everything. All other classes are subclasses of this
    class.

    This is true of RDF, but it is not true of the RDF metamodel. Class RDFSResource is not the superclass of all classes in the RDF metamodel. The paragraph should be rewritten to clarify that it applies to RDF but not the RDF metamodel.

OWL metamodel needs an association between CardinalityRestriction and DataRange

  • Key: ODM12-128
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    In the OWL metamodel, class CardinalityRestriction has an association with ClassExpression but not with DataRange. Consequently, the metamodel can represent a cardinality restriction such as:

    objProp exactly 1 cls

    and

    dataProp exactly 1

    but not

    dataProp exactly 1 xsd:string

    The metamodel does associate SomeValuesFromRestriction and AllValuesFromRestriction with both ClassExpression and DataRange. It needs the corresponding association for CardinalityRestriction.

OWLDatatype should specialize RDFSDatatype

  • Key: ODM12-127
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    OWLDatatype specializes DataRange, which specializes RDFSClass. But the OWL 2 Mapping to RDF Graphs states in Table 1 that an OWL datatype maps to the triple:

    	T(DT) rdf:type rdfs:Datatype .
    

    OWLDatatype should specialize RDFSDatatype rather than RDFSClass.

    Classes DataIntersectionOf, DataUnionOf, DataComplementOf, DataOneOf, and DatatypeRestriction also map to triples of this form. Together with OWLDatatype, that's all the subclasses of DataRange. Should DataRange specialize RDFSDatatype instead of RDFSClass?

Erroneous association in definition of Document?

  • Key: ODM12-126
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    The second association for class Document in the RDF metamodel (Section 10.8.1) is to Namespace, with role name xmlBase. The association's name is DefaultNamespaceForDocument. There is no corresponding association for Namespace (10.8.2). Association DefaultNamespaceForDocument exists between classes Source and Namespace. That role name is defaultNamespace, not xmlBase. Source has an association with role name xmlBase, but the associated class is IRI.

    Given that an association to Namespace exists in a superclass of Document, the xmlBase association is either redundant or a specialization that needs to be further described.

    Also, should the association between Source and Namespace be named DefaultNamespaceForSource instead of DefaultNamespaceForDocument?

Section 11.6.1 uses "ClassExpressions" instead of "DataRanges"

  • Key: ODM12-125
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    Section 11.6.1 describes how the OWL DataRange concept is modeled. Its Constraint [1] has the phrase "ClassExpressions must be anonymous". The phrase should read "DataRanges must be anonymous".

Conflicting role names in OWL metamodel

  • Key: ODM12-124
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    In Figure 11.4, both classes DataRange and ClassExpression have two associations whose role names are "restrictionClass". UML does not permit a class to have multiple associations with the same role name.

    This issue is being reported based on Figure 11.4, but it affects sections 11.3.1 and 11.6.1 as well.

Issues in Annex G

  • Key: ODM12-123
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    Annex G (MOF QVT: A Brief Tutorial) contains some statements that are incorrect or incomplete:

    • Section G.2, paragraph 3, sentence 2 states: "No work is done via a when clause". This is misleading. Relations invoked in a when clause can create instances.
    • Section G.2, paragraph 3, sentence 4: The sentence states that predicates can be connected by an or operator. Individual predicates can contain or operators, but the QVT specification doesn't say or connects predicates.
    • Section G.2, paragraph 4: The paragraph reads "OCL functions can be used." This is true, but incomplete. QVT permits a transformation to define functions, and to access externally-defined functions written in a language such as Java. The paragraph should be amended to describe these types of functions.
    • Section G.2, paragraph 5, sentence 1:
      • The sentence references OCL statements. The OCL specification describes a statement as something along the lines of an invariant (including the keyword inv) or a default attribute value. The correct term is "OCL expressions".
      • The sentence neglects to state that an OCL let expression can define a variable.
    • Section G.2, paragraph 7, sentence 2 reads "A top relation is executed by the system." A top relation may also be called in a where clause.
    • Section G.3, paragraph 6, sentence 2 reads "A process in a repository can link from one object to another via any property ..." The paragraph does not explain what "process" means.
    • Section G.3, paragraph 2, last sentence: the second clause should begin with "it".

Annex D needs complete models

  • Key: ODM12-122
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Institute for Defense Analyses ( Steven Wartik)
  • Summary:

    Annex D illustrates transforming between UML and OWL using an example that shows courses, students, their relationships, and their properties. The examples are presented in fragments throughout section D.2. Readers would benefit from access to complete UML and RDF models. Furthermore, these models being definitive, rigorous, and complete, they would be the basis for the figures and tables in Section D.2 (and perhaps elsewhere in Annex D).

    This issue includes two attachments:

    • Course-Student.mdzip is a UML class model. It can be opened using MagicDraw.
    • AnnexDExamples.rdf is an OWL 2 model expressed in RDF/XML format.

    These models are informative, not normative.

In Section 16.2.1 (UML Kernel), the discussion around Tables 16.2 through 16.4 seems to be about relational implementations, rather than UML modeling in the sense that is important to OWL. My suggestion is to replace Tables 16.3 and 16.4 with the tabular forms of the metamodel, as in 16.2. The paragraph above Table 16.3, first sentence, modeling associations does not depend on the implementation of classes (the "implementation" usually refers to how the model is translated to a platform). Same comment on the second sentence, which says Table 16.2 is an implementation, when it is only a tabular form of the metamodel. The second sentence refers to the disjoint union of attributes, but there's nothing like this in UML.

ODM metamodel needs a Package concept for managing a structure for ontologies

  • Key: ODM12-1
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19630
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)
  • Summary:

    ODM metamodel needs a Package concept for managing a structure for ontologies, akin to the use of UML Packages in the Profile.

    In fact, the use of UML Packages in ontology models is outside the documented profile. There is nothing to say, for example, that the package structure should mirror the URI structure and/or whether it matters whether they differ.

    Despite the fact that the RDF/OWL languages do not have Package, they do make use of folders/directories in wither filestore or on the web.

    And ontologies like FIBO now have metadata at the package/folder level but neither the metamodel nor the profile provide any place to hang these.

    Finally packages provide a much-needed scoping mechanism for applying various operations – which become increasingly impractical as the number of leaf-level ontologies has already exceeded 400 for FIBO

Provide support for distinguishing asserted vs. inferred axioms

  • Key: ODM12-52
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17424
  • Status: open  
  • Source: NASA ( Dr. Nicolas F. Rouquette)
  • Summary:

    Currently, the ODM 1.0 specification defines several stereotypes for representing an OWL ontology in UML using the ODM stereotypes for RDF and OWL.

    The ODM spec is understandably updated to support OWL2, the current recommendation from the W3C.
    It is not entirely clear which OWL2 constructs are supported in the ODM profile — a cross-reference table linking the entries of the quick ref. guide would be particularly helpful: http://www.w3.org/TR/owl2-quick-reference/

    Also, in practice, it would be useful to have the flexibility of showing come axioms but not others.
    For example, if we have (in functional syntax):

    Declaration( Class( A ))
    Declaration( Class( B ))
    Declaration( Class( C ))
    SubCassOf( A B )
    SubCassOf( B C )

    Then, an OWL2 reasoner will infer the following axiom:

    SubCassOf( A C )

    Using the ODM profile, it should be possible to show selected subsets of an ontology.
    For example:

    view1:

    Declaration( Class( A ))
    Declaration( Class( B ))
    Declaration( Class( C ))
    SubCassOf( A B )
    SubCassOf( B C )

    view2:

    Declaration( Class( A ))
    Declaration( Class( B ))
    Declaration( Class( C ))
    SubCassOf( A B )
    SubCassOf( B C )
    SubCassOf( A C )

    view3:

    Declaration( Class( A ))
    Declaration( Class( C ))
    SubCassOf( A C )

    This brings up the question of adding support in the ODM profile to distinguish asserted vs. inferred axioms.
    Perhaps there could be a flag — e.g.,

    isAsserted : Boolean = true // set it to false for an inferred axiom — or--
    isInferred : Boolean = false // set it to true for an inferred axiom

    Finally, additional markup may be useful — e.g., showing whether an ontology is consistent or not.

Users creating domain ontologies want their models to be user friendly

  • Key: ODM12-56
  • Legacy Issue Number: 16256
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Model Driven Solutions ( Mr. Cory Casanave)
  • Summary:

    Users creating domain ontologies want their models to be user friendly and this requires phrases with spaces and other special characters. The use of “camel case” and other I.T. conventions are not friendly, however OWL has restrictions on the characters that may be used.

    Potential resolution: ODM should specify the algorithm for mapping a user friendly names in the UML profile to an OWL legal name where required. The user friendly name can and should be used in the OWL label and does not require such mapping. The choice of algorithm can be to eliminate the space and enforce camel case or to substitute underscores for all illegal characters. My preference would be to introduce underscores as these are then easier to reverse map from OWL to UML and are visually similar to spaces.

Examples provided for owl:inverseOf are misleading

  • Key: ODM12-57
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12400
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    From email dated 3/12/2008 from SRI, and as discussed (and documented in the minutes from the ODM FTF2 F2F DC meeting: Section 14.2.6.5 - Simple association with properties at the end is a nice readable notation. However, the "brotherOf" property between the two classes in Figure 14.28 could be duplicated on an association between two other classes on the same diagram, but the would be unrelated in the UML model, whereas in OWL they would be a single property with multiple domains and ranges. (This comment applies also to similar graphical representation shown in other sections). So – this is true. It is managed in UML via the namespace of the relation, which may assume that you're not trying to determine all possible values with each property. The example is not a good one and could lead to inconsistent interpretation. We should get a better example. Also, we need to decide what the interpretation of the role name is, when you have mutiples (when you assume that it is or is not in the same namespace).

UML Profile for RDF and OWL, Section 14.2.5

  • Key: ODM11-117
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12563
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    The current method for specifying OWL restrictions (e.g., owl:allValuesFrom, owl:someValuesFrom, owl:hasValue) in the profile does not provide a means to differentiate, on a diagram, between the restriction types. Further, it does not create the proper "necessary and sufficient" or "necessary" relationships between the class to which the restriction applies and the anonymous class specified by the restriction.

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.1
  • Disposition Summary:

    There are several issues with the use of property redefinition to support restrictions in OWL. One of these involves the notion of property identity: OWL restrictions specify classes whose members have a restricted range of values for a particular property. In UML, property redefinition involves defining two distinct properties, potentially having the same name, one of which redefines the other, but that have unique identity and are related contextually via a constraint. Property identity is preserved in OWL, however – there is only one uniquely defined property referenced in property restrictions.
    In addition, the notation specified in the current ODM document (for all three kinds of restrictions – existential and universal quantification as well as restricting the range of the property to a particular individual or data value) does not provide the ability to indicate whether property redefinition means that the restriction is necessary for class membership or necessary and sufficient for class membership. In OWL, restrictions are formed by creating an anonymous restriction class that limits the values possible for the range of a particular property, and then linking this restriction class to other class expressions, such as a named class, either through a generalization (rdfs:subClassOf), corresponding to necessary conditions for class membership, or equivalence relationship (owl:equivalentClass), corresponding to necessary and sufficient conditions. There should be a visible way for modellers to make this distinction in an ODM-compliant model. Such anonymous restrictions can be used with other class expressions to build up complex expressions useful for classification and identity reasoning (for example, does some individual x meet the criteria to be a member of y).
    The proposed solution makes use of the «owlRestriction» stereotype, already available in the ODM specification, and augments that with a set of dependencies that connect the restriction to the property being restricted and to the class or individual/literal that provide the requisite source of value(s), as well as the use of either the «rdfsSubClassOf» stereotyped generalization or the «equivalentClass» stereotyped dependency or generalization that are already in the profile.
    Per RTF discussion all of the stereotypes and notation for restrictions have been consolidated under a single heading, rather than distributing them across several sections. As a result, the recommendation, below, incorporates details for both object and data restrictions, for number as well as value restrictions, together in section 14.2.5.3, and eliminates sections 14.2.5.4 through 14.2.5.6.

  • Summary:

    Currently, the specification of owl:DataRange uses a UML::Enumeration, which requires all of the data values that make up the enumeration to be enumeration literals. In all other places in the profile, literal strings are used to represent literals, yet one cannot use literal strings to build up data ranges given the current definition (i.e. something that is a literal string cannot also be an enumeration literal).

In Annex F the use of OWLClass::/isClassKind: and OWLClass::/hasRestrictionKind is not sufficient

  • Key: ODM11-140
  • Legacy Issue Number: 16035
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)
  • Summary:

    In Annex F the use of OWLClass::/isClassKind: and OWLClass::/hasRestrictionKind is not sufficient to avoid the need for large numbers of multiply-inherited classes e.g. IndividualOWLIntersectionClass since isClassKind does not capture the specific properties of the subclass e.g. OWLintersectionOf. Furthermore isClassKind should not be derived (in the same way isSymmetric should not be derived). To avoid the large number of multiple-inherited class a generic association OWLClass::relatedClass[0..*] would need to be added – which would stand in for OWLintersectionOf, OWLunionOf, OWLcomplementOf depending on the value of isClassKind. And another association to Individual for OWLoneOf. And it gets still messier to try to capture all the relationships of OWLRestriction. However the larger question is whether all this multiple inheritance is needed : since, as I understand it, all these subclasses of OWLClass will only be instantiated by anonymous classes, and it does not make sense that anonymous classes could also be reified as Individuals/Properties.

    It’s unclear how derived Association OWLBase::/TripleForGraph is supposed to interact/be merged with underived RDFBase::TripleForGraph. There seems no need for a derived OWLGraph::/triple when OWLGraph inherits triple from RDFGraph. Or is it the intent that OWLGraph::triple

    {redefines RDFGraph::triple}

    – in which case that should be stated along with how it would be derived: via OWLGraph::ontology and Ontology::triple? And is it the intent that Triple has both a derived /owlGraph and a (non-derived) graph property? In which case the former should

    {subset}

    the latter and the derivation should be expressed.

There are a number of issues with the text, including the fact that it is outdated, but many people find it useful from an educational perspective.

    The RDF has determined that deleting the chapter altogether is not a good strategy due to the fact that so many educators have been using it as a teaching tool. However, because of the reasons listed above, the RTF would like it to have a less prominent role in the overall specification. Please move this chapter to an informative Annex in the document.

It isn't necessary to assume this, since UML does not assume a relational semantics. The notion of identity is primitive in UML and applies even to instances of classes that have no attributes or attribute values. The rest of the paragraph may apply to relational implementations, but is not a general solution. It also assumes that the property names of classes are always different, but distinct classes can have the same properties in UML. (BTW, fourth sentence, "values" -> "names")
