From Basic Formal Ontology to the Information Artifact Ontology

July 22-23, 2009

Two-day Course organized in conjunction with the International Conference on Biomedical Ontology

This course will provide an introduction to two ontologies at the heart of the work of the Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) Foundry initiative. Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) is a small upper-level ontology representing types of continuants and occurrents. The Information Artifact Ontology is an ontology of continuants, such as documents, measurement results,
