ODM #2: OWL-Classes as instances (powertyping)

[Michael Hafner]

Dear all,

the OWL toolbox doesn't seem to support the modeling of classes as instances - ?

In UML, we can use generalization sets/ powertypes to partition sets /group sets of subclasses; but I'm afraid this won't translate into an OWL-type during export. We can't use the instance/object element (as we want to classifiy a class), and there is no stereotyped dependency for this either. Of cource, one might create a stereotyped dependency, but the export function would not know we did that.

Any ideas?

Thank you
Michael
