Annotations

  • Annotation


    The class of annotated annotations for which the RDF serialization consists of an annotated subject, predicate and object.

    The class of annotation properties.

  • annotatedProperty


    The property that determines the predicate of an annotated axiom or annotated annotation.

  • annotatedSource


    The property that determines the subject of an annotated axiom or annotated annotation.

Versions

  • backwardCompatibleWith


    The annotation property that indicates that a given ontology is backward compatible with another ontology.
