| Abstract |
Upper Ontologies are quickly becoming a key technology for integrating
heterogeneous knowledge coming from different sources. In this technical
report we analyse 7 Upper Ontologies, namely BFO, Cyc, DOLCE, GFO,
PROTON, Sowa’s ontology, and SUMO, according to a set of standard software
engineering criteria, and we synthesise our analysis in form of a comparative table.
A summary of some existing comparisons drawn among subsets of the 7
Upper Ontologies that we deal with in this document, is also provided. |
