| Why does the GPL v2 licence need updating? |
|

| SUMO - Suggested Upper Merged Ontology |

In the process of managing information bottom-up, you might end up with lots of various structures. Starting out with definitions, a thesaurus can be formed, with various relations existing inside, a taxonomy. Structuring taxonomies and their relations (by then a time factor is incorporated), you're building a full metamodel, and enter the domain of ontologies. Looking at top-down approaches you could ask: Does a highest level ontology exist, and if so what does it look like? |
