A shorter URL for the same paper is http://CEUR-WS.org/Vol-23/cranefield-ijcai99-iii.pdf Also, here is a more recent paper following on from the one above: http://www.semanticweb.org/SWWS/program/full/paper1.pdf (This discusses generating an RDF schema and Java classes from an ontology in UML in order to support the serialisation of knowledge modelled as a UML object diagram). This work uses UML in its own right as an ontology representation language. Another approach is to use UML as a graphical notation for DAML+OIL. The following two Web sites discuss projects taking this approach: http://ubot.lockheedmartin.com/ http://grcinet.grci.com/maria/www/CodipSite/codip.html - StephenReceived on Tuesday, 13 November 2001 21:35:25 UTC
