XML Support for an Operational Enterprise Ontology
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract: At least three different uses of ontologies have been recognized: as taxonomies, for conceptual schema validation, and as knowledge-intensive specification that can be used as part of an application. Geerts and McCarthy (2001) describe the operational use of the Resource-Event-Agent (REA) enterprise ontology and they discuss the limitations of existing technology that limits its widespread use. This paper discusses the use of XML in support of an operational enterprise ontology.
