OWL

The Web Ontology Language (OWL) is a family of knowledge representation languages for authoring ontologies.

Synonyms: Web Ontology Language .

How it works

Ontologies are a formal way to describe taxonomies and classification networks, essentially defining the structure of knowledge for various domains: the nouns representing classes of objects and the verbs representing relations between the objects.

The OWL languages are characterized by formal semantics. They are built upon the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) standard for objects called the Resource Description Framework (RDF). OWL classes correspond to description logic (DL) concepts. OWL properties to DL roles, and individuals are named the same way in OWL and other DLs.
