Description

• allows engineers to directly specify their knowledge as ontologies with precise syntax and semantics, without the usual incidental complexity found in semantic web technologies and tools ⁸
• enabling systems engineers to consider rigor and agility across seven systems engineering architectural functions: representation, authoring, federation, configuration, integration, analysis, and reporting

Features

• supports closed-world reasoning!?
  • see Opencaesar and Closed World

Concepts

• Vocabulary / Vocabulary bundle equivalent to ontology
  • but creating a vocabulary bundle "automatically asserts that classes in the bundled vocabularies that do not have common subtypes are disjoint (have no intersection), which helps detect a wide class of errors that would otherwise not get detected due to the open-world assumption" !?
• Description / Description bundle equivalent to instance data
