  • Legacy Issue Number: 19072
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)
  • Summary:

    The ODM Metamodel and Profile should support OWL2 reflexive, irreflexive and asymmetric properties

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Fri, 8 Nov 2013 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.1

How to relate RDF Classes to an OWL Ontology in ODM metamodel

  • Key: ODM11-173
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19073
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)
  • Summary:

    There are ontologies such as Dublin Core which consist of RDFS Classes, but, for various reasons, also have an OWL Ontology. Currently the ODM metamodel does not have a way to represent this association – only OWL Classes can be linked to an OWL Ontology (the ODM Profile can easily reuse the UML association between Package and PackagedElement but this usage should really be documented).

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Fri, 8 Nov 2013 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.1
  • Disposition Summary:

    This is addressed by the association ResourcesGrouped between Namespace and RDFSResource which was added by the resolution to issue 18862. Thus, this issue is resolved by 18862.

RDFWeb serves no purpose

  • Key: ODM11-170
  • Legacy Issue Number: 18861
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)
  • Summary:

    Recent changes/clarifications in the RDF 1.1 specification reduce the need for a separate RDFWeb package. Further, there has been, and there is unlikely to be, any movement by other standards to use it to “map to similar features in a Common Logic ontology, Topic Map, UML, or ER conceptual model”. Finally, it adds confusion through the existence of duplicated class names with the RDFConcepts package.

    Therefore the package (section 10.9) should be removed and any metamodel elements merged into RDFConcepts.

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Tue, 20 Aug 2013 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.1
  • Disposition Summary:

    A. In section titles for 10.2 thru 10.5, remove “RDFBase Package,” and in titles 10.6 thru 10.8 remove “RDFS Package” and in 10.9 title remove “(RDFWeb Package)”

    B. Remove the package RDFWeb from the metamodel, merging all of its classes into RDF Concepts (using MOF/UML PackageMerge rules)

    C. Delete the first 2 paragraphs of section 10.9

    D. Retitle Figure 10.9 as “RDF Documents”

Definition of RDF Property and its use in the figures is inconsistent

  • Key: ODM11-169
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12398
  • Status: closed  
  • 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 14.1.7, In Figure 4.3 the line is an "association". However, the specified base classes are "AssociationClass" and "Property". To duplicate this example in Enterprise Architect, it was necessary to define a profile in which the rdfProperty stereotype extend the "Association" metaclass.

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.1
  • Disposition Summary:

    This issue and ensuing discussions have led the FTF working group to recognize the need for an additional way to represent an RDF property in UML, that is, reified as a UML::Class, in addition to adding UML::Association to the set of base classes available for modeling RDF properties in the profile.
    Tool implementation of AssociationClass (tested in IBM Rational Software Architect, No Magic MagicDraw, and Sparx Enterprise Architect) is unsatisfactory from an RDF/OWL perspective, as one cannot draw free-standing RDF properties (as association classes with an "rdfProperty" stereotype applied) without dragging the default relationships to rdfs:Resource or owl:Thing onto a diagram). In many cases when defining RDF vocabularies, it is desirable to define a property on its own, without specifying any domain or range, but sometimes showing property inheritance. Downstream vocabularies may then further refine these definitions as appropriate.
    The proposed resolution is to
    § add UML::Association as a base class for all cases where RDF properties are used in the RDF and OWL profiles
    § add UML::Class as a base class for all cases where RDF properties are used in the RDF and OWL profiles
    § introduce two new stereotypes, "rdfsDomain" and "rdfsRange", to support domain and range property restrictions when UML classes are used to represent RDF properties,

No stereotype for OWL individuals

  • Key: ODM11-168
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12397
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    From the ODM FTF2 meeting minutes, February 20th: There is currently no stereotype available for individuals in the OWL Profile. Participants agreed that we would like to have a stereotype <<owlIndividual>> on UML instance specifications for individual, and would want an additional constraint saying that such an instance specification would only have one value, i.e., that it specifies a single individual; also, what if we have a singleton, but not the corresponding individual? We would still translate the singleton class to an OWL individual in this case ... see issue 10908 (related issue in the mapping chapter).

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.1
  • Disposition Summary:

OWL Properties have conflicting definitions

  • Key: ODM11-167

  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    From the ODM FTF2 meeting, Burlingame meeting: In 14.2.6.1 owl:DatatypeProperty specifies base class of AssociationClass AND Property. 14.2.6.2 and 14.2.6.3 specify a base class of AssociationClass OR Property. What is it, AND or OR? The text for section 14.2.6.2 owl:ObjectProperty and 14.2.6.3 owl:Property, defining the base class and stereotype is wrong - it should be AND.

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 04:00 GMT

OWL Cardinality Constraints text revision

  • Key: ODM11-166
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12395
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    From the ODM FTF2 meeting minutes of February 20th: Cardinality constraints – the second paragraph of the description states: "Additionally, isOrdered = false on OWL properties, and isUnique = true on owl properties...". These "constraints" are not specified in the owl properties section (14.2.6) - should they apply to all owl properties, or only to cardinality constraints? According to Conrad, this text should apply to all RDF and OWL properties, but it comes from the text on multiplicities in UML, which is why it landed in this section of the document. Note that it does occur under the rdfProperty section of the profile specification, so it does apply to all properties ... thus we might remove the "OWL" from the sentence for further clarification.

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 04:00 GMT

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.

The paragraph under Figure 14.19 (Figure 14.19 - Property Redefinition For owl:allValuesFrom With Association Classes) says the owlValue stereotype may be applied to an association, but the base class of owlValue is Property. It also says the multiplicity of the allValueFrom property can be set by the modeler, but it can't, the multiplicity is defined in the standard.

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.

    The ODM metamodels and profiles were developed using UML 2.1.2, OCL 2.0, MOF 2.0, and MOF XMI 2.1.1, and should be revised to support the latest versions of these specifications. The references in the normative references section of the document and any other text referring to these versions should be revised accordingly as well.

  • Reported: ODM 1.0 — Fri, 26 Jul 2013 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — ODM 1.1
  • Disposition Summary:

    1. The ODM machine readable files for the metamodel and UML Profile should be expressed in UML 2.4.1 (with MOF 2.4.1 for the Tags), and the non-normative ancillary files should use a version of MagicDraw that implements UML 2.4.1.
    2. In section 3, the reference to MOF should be as follows:
    [MOF] Meta Object Facility (MOF) Core Specification, Version 2.4.1. OMG Specification, formal/2013-06-01. Latest version is available at http://www.omg.org/spec/MOF/2.4.1/.
    3. In section 3, the reference to UML2 should be as follows:
    [UML2] Unified Modeling Language: Superstructure, version 2.4.1. OMG Specification, formal/2011-08-06. Available at http://www.omg.org/spec/UML/2.4.1/.
    4. In section 3, delete the reference [UML Infra]

Association member ends

  • Key: ODM11-89
  • Legacy Issue Number: 10871
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    Association member ends. In 16.2.2 (Class and Property - Basics), third paragraph under Figure 16.3 describes UML member ends incorrectly. The second sentence says that the classes Staff and Enrolled are member ends, but member ends are classes, not properties.

Subproperites and redefintion

  • Key: ODM11-88
  • Legacy Issue Number: 10867
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    Subproperites and redefintion. In 16.2.2 (Class and Property - Basics), in the paragraph below Table 16.8, the second sentence, in parentheses, says that subproperties translate to redefinition. The translation is only to subsetting. Also the wording in parenthetical remark conflates association generalization with property subsetting. Same comment about the last sentence of this paragraph, which omits property subsetting. Same comment about the translation given in the next paragraph. UML associations, even binary ones, can have more than one property, and each property can be subsetted if the associaton as a whole is specialized, but they don't all need to be.

Figure D.3 notation

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    Figure D.3 notation. In Annex D, in Figure D.2, the instance names should be underlined. Some of the association end names are so far from the ends of the lines that it's hard to tell which they are referring to.

Identifiers

  • Key: ODM11-87
  • Legacy Issue Number: 10865
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    Identifiers. In 16.2.2 (Class and Property - Basics), in the paragraph below Table 16.7, the first sentence says the translation assumes that a single name dentifies each instance of the class. 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")

  • Summary:

    UML Thing 2. In 16.2.3 (More Advanced Concepts), fourth paragraph, last sentence, it's clear what the tool sets would do with it: provide Thing for modelers to explicitly assign as the end of a class, and use it as the default end class when none is given.

  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    Translation of binary associations. In 16.2.3 (More Advanced Concepts), third paragraph, next to last sentence, the domain of the OWL property is the class at the non-navigable end. This is because the ends of associations in UML are placed opposite the class they navigate from.
