Abstract
The increasing interest in ontologies is driven by the large volumes of information now available as well as by the increasing complexity and diversity of this information. These trends have also increased interest in automating many activities that were traditionally performed manually. We are currently engaged in this paper that have realized benefits in productivity and clarity by utilizing UML class diagrams to develop and to display complex OWL ontologies. UML has many features, such as profiles, global modularity and extension mechanisms that are not generally available in most ontology languages. However, ontology languages have some features that UML does not support. Our paper identifies the similarities and differences between UML and the ontology languages RDF and OWL. To reconcile these differences, we propose a modification to the UML metamodel to address some of the most problematic differences.
