[ontac-forum] Surveyed Ontology "Library" Systems

["Gary Berg-Cross" <gary.berg-cross@xxxxxxxx>]

At our kick off meeting we discussed an action to assemble a list of candidate ontologies.  There have been a few mentioned in the various posting, but I'm not sure that anyone is collecting a list. 

 

There is a paper (Ding & Fensel) called Ontology Library Systems: The key to successful Ontology Re-use  - a copy at http://www.uibk.ac.at/~c703205/download/ontologylibrary_camera.pdf

 

I don't think this is up to date, but it discusses managing a collections onf ontologies and one could look at the lattices for these.
