RE: independent semantic software evaluation frameworks?

Azamat,

Thank you for your comments on the PwC interview.  The standards I was
referring to was Chevron's internal standards in ontology naming, and
making them sharable with the [Chevron] community, thereby as a basis of
our own [Chevron] master data/ontology model.

I hope this helps with the clarification.

Frank Chum

Thank you, Pieter:

The forecast makes an interesting reading. Particularly i liked Frank
Chum 
of Chevron interview on shared ontologies in the oil and gas industry.

Although, have to say, he missed to answer the most interesting
question:

 PwC: Do you sense some danger that we could have a lot of enthusiasm
here 
and end up with a lot of non-compatible ontologies? Are we going to
enter a 
period where there will need to be some sort of master data model, a
master 
ontology model effort?

FC: We already defined some standards to address that. We have a URI 
[Uniform Resource Identifier] standard for how you name ontologies, and
it's 
referenceable so that you can go into that URI and retrieve the
ontology. We 
tried to make that shareable, and we are also starting a community type
of 
space.
