[mailto:lob...@mitre.org] Sent: Friday, August 15, 2014 8:52 PM To: Semantic Web; public-lod@w3.org<mailto:public-lod@w3.org> Subject: UML => OWL, SKOS => OWL? [cid:image001.gif@01CFBA00.D2D62690] Folks, I'm looking for: 1) Formalizations, methods, implementations, tools that convert/transform UML object models into OWL ontologies in a structure- and semantics-preserving way. 2) Also, approaches that map SKOS vocabularies (especially codelists) in a reasonable fashion to OWL ontologies. E.g., as value enumerations of ranges of data or object properties. Concerning (1), I'm aware of early UML => DAML work, circa 2001-2. I am also aware of more recent work such as: Zedlitz, Jesper, and Norbert Luttenberger. 2014. Conceptual Modelling in UML and OWL-2. International Journal on Advances in Software, vol 7 no 1 & 2, year 2014, http://www.iariajournals.org/software/. Also: http://www.thinkmind.org/download.php?articleid=soft_v7_n12_2014_15.

Also, do you know of work addressing (2)? Thanks much!
