Описание (английский):

This document describes descriptive ontology for finguistic and cognitive engineering (DOLCE) as an ontology that is conformant to the requirements specified for top-level ontologies in ISO/IEC 21838-1. This document describes DOLCE as a resource designed to support ontology design, ontology integration, and semantic integration of heterogeneous information systems. The following are within the scope of this document: — definitions of classes and relations in the signature of DOLCE; — axiomatizations of DOLCE in OWL 2 and CL; — documentation of the conformity of DOLCE to the requirements specified for top-level ontologies in ISO/IEC 21838-1; — documentation of the methodology for specifying domain ontologies that conform to DOLCE. The following are outside the scope of this document: — specification of ontology languages, including the languages RDF, OWL, and CL standardly used in ontology development; — specification of methods for reasoning with ontologies; — specification of translators between the notations of ontologies developed in different ontology languages.

Abstract

Overview

ISO/IEC 21838-3:2023 - "Information technology - Top-level ontologies (TLO) - Part 3: Descriptive ontology for linguistic and cognitive engineering (DOLCE)" standardizes the DOLCE top-level ontology as a resource for ontology design, ontology integration, and semantic integration of heterogeneous information systems. The standard documents DOLCE’s natural-language signature, formal axiomatizations in OWL 2 and Common Logic (CL), its modular structure, and the methodology for developing domain ontologies that conform to DOLCE. It also demonstrates conformance to the top-level ontology requirements in ISO/IEC 21838-1:2021.

Key topics and technical requirements

Scope and purpose: DOLCE is aimed at making commonsense, linguistic and cognitive categories explicit for interoperable ontology engineering.
Conformance: Domain ontologies conform if they are consistent extensions of the DOLCE axiomatization in the same formalism (OWL‑2 or CL).
Representations provided:
- Natural language documentation of DOLCE terms and relations for human maintenance.
- OWL 2 formalization to support Semantic Web applications and OWL reasoners.
- Common Logic (CL/CLIF) axiomatization to capture expressive axioms and intended models.
Modularity: The CL axiomatization is modular (e.g., Taxonomy, Mereology, Present, Dependence, Participation, Temporary Parthood, Constitution, Qualities), supporting reuse and conservative extensions.
Verification: The document provides evidence of logical consistency of the CL axiomatization and interpretability of the OWL 2 axiomatization in CL.
Breadth of coverage: DOLCE addresses core ontological themes such as space and time (endurants vs. perdurants), parts/wholes, change, qualities, processes, causality, information and social artefacts, and mental/fictional entities.
Out of scope: The standard does not specify ontology languages themselves (RDF/OWL/CL), reasoning methods, or translation tools between ontology notations.

Applications and users

Who uses it: Ontology engineers, knowledge architects, semantic integrators, data modelers, AI and NLP researchers, GIS and robotics engineers, and enterprises building interoperable semantic systems.
Practical uses:
- Designing domain ontologies that align with a shared TLO for consistent semantics.
- Integrating ontologies across domains to enable semantic interoperability.
- Supporting ontology quality control through OWL reasoners and formal CL analysis.
- Aligning enterprise data models, process models, and knowledge graphs with common upper-level categories.
