OWL Elements:
Toolbox Icon |
Description |
|---|---|
Ontology |
The OWL ontology Package, which holds all the OWL modeling elements. You can export the contents of this Package to produce the Ontology XML document.
|
Class |
An extended UML Class that represents an OWL Class that describes an instantiable entity with properties and semantic meaning.
|
Data Range |
An extended UML Enumeration that defines a collection of values for an OWL Property.
|
Enumerated Class |
An extended UML Class that defines an OWL Class extension defined by any one of the range of the allowed OWL Individuals.
|
Restriction |
An extended UML Class that defines an OWL Class extension as restricted by the specified property and its allowable values.
|
Singleton |
An extended UML Class, representing an OWL Class for a specific OWL Individual.
|
OWL Properties (Elements):
Toolbox Icon |
Description |
|---|---|
Annotation |
An extended UML Class, representing an OWL Annotation Property definition.
|
Datatype Property |
An extended UML Class, representing an OWL Datatype Property definition.
|
Object Property |
An extended UML Class, representing a semantic OWL Property definition.
|
Ontology Property |
An extended UML Part, representing a property defined on the OWL Ontology.
|
Individual |
An extended UML Object, representing an instance of an OWL Class which defines an individual fact.
|
Value |
An extended UML Part, holding a value defined in an OWL Property or OWL Individual.
|
OWL Relationships:
Toolbox Icon |
Description |
|---|---|
Imports |
An extended UML PackageImports, that enables an OWL ontology to reference another OWL Ontology.
|
Domain |
An extended UML Association, that specifies the OWL Classes that apply the specified OWL Property (Annotation, Datatype or Object Property).
|
Range |
An extended UML Association, that specifies the OWL Class with the value type applicable to the specified OWL Property (Annotation, Datatype or Object Property).
|
Inverse Of |
An extended UML Association, between two opposing, but related OWL Property elements.
|
Sub Property Of |
An extended UML Generalization between two OWL Property elements.
|
Subclass Of |
An extended UML Generalization between two OWL Class elements.
|
Value |
An extended UML Association, defining an OWL Property and value between OWL Classes.
|
OWL Semantics (Relationships):
Toolbox Icon |
Description |
|---|---|
All Different |
An extended UML Dependency between different (ie: unique) OWL Individuals typed by the same OWL Class.
|
Backward Compatible With |
An extended UML Dependency between an OWL Ontology and another that it's backward compatible with.
|
Complement Of |
An extended UML Dependency between an OWL Class and its complement (or opposite).
|
Different From |
An extended UML Dependency between two semantically different OWL Individuals typed by the same OWL Class.
|
Disjoint With |
An extended UML Dependency between two OWL Classes that have no common individuals.
|
Equivalent Class |
An extended UML Dependency between two equivalent OWL Classes.
|
Equivalent Property |
An extended UML Dependency between two equivalent OWL Property elements.
|
Incompatible With |
An extended UML Dependency between an OWL Ontology and another that it is incompatible with.
|
Intersection Of |
An extended UML Dependency between an OWL Class and others it also specializes.
|
Ontology Property |
An extended UML Dependency, representing a property defined on the OWL Ontology.
|
Prior Version |
An extended UML Dependency between an OWL Ontology and its predecessor.
|
Same As |
An extended UML Dependency between two semantically identical OWL Individuals typed by the same OWL Class.
|
Union Of |
An extended UML Dependency between a general OWL Class and others that distinctly specialize it.
