DCAP in UML/OWL/XSD

A zip file is attached with an example translation of an OWL ontology
into XSD to check closed-world assumptions. This was the essence of what
I talked about at the Joint Meeting:

:_Review_of_DCMI_Abstract_Model.2C_brainstorming_on_requirements

 

The key documents are also browsable on the Web:

I kept the XSD focused on a single individual of type Work, but in
principle XSDs could be built that systematically bundled more of the
surrounding individuals.

 

I think that Michael's demonstration of Pellet using SPARQL queries to
do validation is more interesting because it can be applied beyond RDF
document ingest.

 

Comments, questions and discussion are welcome.
