Abstract
One of the missions of the semantic Web is to put more knowledge on the Web in an organized fashion and link it to other information and data sources. Three successively more capable languages are (or will soon be) provided for this: RDF, OWL, and SWRL. This paper makes a case for using all three for the domain of modeling and simulation. Based on experience developing the discrete-event modeling ontology (DeMO) some observations on the issues and challenges involved in creating such ontologies are presented. An approach for decomposing models into behavioral and observable parts, a la hidden Markov models, which can make ontologies smaller and easier to understand, is also discussed Author(s) Miller, J.A.
