Session Abstract & Resources
Recent Ontolog sessions, such as those in the EarthScienceOntolog mini-series, have highlighted new use cases for the design and application of ontologies.
- (1) Ontologies are modularized, with each module having different versions.
- (2) Ontology module versions may shift from one representation language to another over time.
- (3) Ontology modules may be in different locations (ideally, OOR instances) and one needs to map between them. For example, the same leaf concepts can be categorized in more than one way by different communities, and users want to select the categorization for their specific needs.
- (4) Ontology elements are often mapped to domain-specific visualizations which may vary with their use.
These new use cases represent new challenges for the design of the the OOR. This session will attempt to understand these new use cases and to propose changes to the OOR architecture for dealing with them.The various architectures and APIs for ontology repositories presented for consideration are available at OpenOntologyRepository_Architecture
Here is the status of the strawman architecture: OpenOntologyRepository_Architecture/Candidate03
In addition, there is an API of the core services that was obtained from anearlier implementation BioPortal, which is not entirely compatible with the straw man architecture, but furnishes a starting point. This API will also be discussed and modified as needed.
- Here is the API expressed in WSDL: http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/kenb/oor/OORService.wsdl
- Here is the API expressed in Java: http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/kenb/oor/OORI.java
Finally, we need to agree on a plan for completing the development of the specification.
Here is the proposed organizing plan: OpenOntologyRepository_Architecture/GettingOrganized
We encourage all participants to update your candidate contributions to ensure your ideas are known and understood.

- moving from OOR sandbox to OOR production
... items below are mostly from the previous workshop, and may be updated as this session progresses.
- Gatekeeping specifies the a set of minimal requirements that any ontology within the OOR has to meet. The latter are intended to enable the users of the OOR to find quickly ontologies that fit their needs; the criteria are not supposed to ensure the quality of the ontologies.
- Each OOR instance declares what ontology languages it supports.
- Every OOR instance MUST support RDFS.
- This is required because the metadata is expressed in OMV.
- OMV is written in OWL, but it may be sufficient to require only RDFS. This needs to be investigated.
- Other ontology languages MAY be supported.
- For each metadata attribute, it will be specified whether it is required or optional.
- It MUST be specified whether the ontology is available (or to be available in the future).
- The ontology language MUST be specified.
- Other attributes will be handled offline by Michael Grüninger based on the OMV specification.
- An ontology must satisfy other requirements depending on the ontology language.
- Syntax checking is always required.
- Consistency checking is required with some time limit.
