Definition of Ontology Servicing Ontological Logical Theory
Zhihai Liu · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2008
In the developing process of ontology engineering from pure theory to application research,the definition of ontology is too obscure and enormous to facilitate to construct,share,and reuse.Driven by the requirements on current research and application,a new definition of ontology that focuses on a domain is proposed.To unify the ideas of ontological hierarchy and modularization.Sub-ontology,atom ontology,and the recursive definition of ontology are made under summarization of the existing results.These efforts build a foundation for ontology to form the scientific taxonomic system and consistent logical theory.
