Issues Descriptions

Bi-directional URIReferenceForNamespace association

  • Key: ODM-4
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11105
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: International Business Machines ( Mr. Guo Tong Xie)
  • Summary:

    In section 10.7.3, URIReferenceForNamespace should be changed to two uni-directional associations between URIReference and Namespace. In the current model, if two URIReference have the same Namespace, it could not be represented.

  • Reported: ODM 1.0b1 — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    This issue really identifies the need for two relationships between these classes.
    It calls for an additional role that would yield links to all the URIReferences
    "contained" in a Namespace. The current association between these two classes is meant to represent URIReferences which identify namespaces, hence the association name URIReferenceForNamespace, while the URIReferences in question would identify elements in an owl ontology or rdfs vocabulary and not Namespaces. As the model stands, there is no easy way to derive this information.

    The change to address this involves the addition of a new bi-directional association, URIReferenceInNamespace, between the URIReference and Namespace classes, as shown below.

Role name of superProperty

  • Key: ODM-3
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11104
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: International Business Machines ( Mr. Guo Tong Xie)
  • Summary:

    In section 10.5.1, the role name of superProperty in PropertyGeneralization is confusing. It might be changed to subProperty

  • Reported: ODM 1.0b1 — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    During the Jun 27th telecon, participants agreed that superProperty seems synonymous with RDFSsubPropertyOf, and that it should be changed to superPropertyOf, for consistency with other naming conventions in the metamodel.

Common Logic Metamodel is out of sync with the ISO FDIS CL specification

  • Key: ODM-1
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11101
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    Specification: Ontology Definition Metamodel
    FormalNumber: ptc/06-10-11
    Section: 12
    Summary: Common Logic Metamodel is out of sync with the ISO FDIS CL specification.

    Description: Minor changes were made to the CL language as it was finalized through the ISO process, which are not reflected in the ODM specification. These include text and diagram / model / xmi changes, which, although minor, should be resynchronized now that the ISO standardization process is complete

  • Reported: ODM 1.0b1 — Wed, 13 Jun 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    Revise the CL metamodel and related text as follows. Changes include:
    § Revised reference to the FDIS CL specification
    § Addition of Association CommentedText to and elimination of Association CommentedPhrase from the Phrases Diagram (Figure 12.1)
    § Rename Association ArgumentsForFunctionalTerm to ArgumentSequenceForFunctionalTerm (Figure 12.2)
    § Rename Association ArgumentsForAtomicSentence to ArgumentSequenceForAtomicSentence (Figure 12.3)
    § Rename Association BindingSequence to BindingSequenceForQuantifiedSentence (Figure 12.6) and provide missing paragraph (12.7.1 Binding)
