Hi,
would be great, if anyone could help me out with a definition I try to
accomplish both using TM/XTM and OWL. I am not sure, if this question is
appropriate for this list, hence, I'd be thankful for references to a
more fitting mailing list for my question or the OWL part, too.
The scenario: I want to denote equivalence in the ontology.
For OWL I know, that we have a property owl:equivalentClass. Is there a
similar thing in XTM or a common way of modelling it?
Further, being equivalent in my point of view does not mean to be the
same, so I assume that two classes/topics may be equivalent but have
different naming in properties, roles, relations etc. Does anyone know
of a way how to express this in either OWL or TM/XTM? Will restrictions
do the job for OWL?
Thanks,
Stefan
