Standard Upper Ontology Study Group 
9/7/00 
 11  - SUO is an IEEE study group to investigate and develop a "Standard Upper Ontology".  "This standard will specify the semantics of a general-purpose upper level ontology. An ontology is a set of termsand formal definitions. This will be limited to the upper level, which provides definition for general-purpose termsand provides a structure for compliant lower level domain ontologies. It is estimated to contain between 1000 and2500 terms plus roughly ten definitional statements for each term. Is intended to provide the foundation forontologies of much larger size and more specific scope."Standard Upper Ontology Glossary

 18  - The IEEE Standard Upper Ontology (SUO) Working  Group has established a quickbase supported glossery. Only people who are currently on the  mailing list for IEEE SUO can add or modifyinformation in this database. The mechanisms  provided by Quickbase will support allowing additional people to edit the glossary.SUO Ontology Browser

 14  - The Suggested Upper Merged Ontology (SUMO) is now available as aProtege KB.  SUMO is an approved "starter document" in the IEEEStandard Upper Ontology effort.  It contains roughly 750 terms anddefinitions for very general ontological concepts such as temporalrelations, spatial relations, activities and roles.  Protege(http://protege.stanford.edu/) is an ontology development tooldeveloped by the Stanford Medical Informatics group. |
