It can be difficult to maintain closed, explicitly ordered lists of items in the present version of OWL. While the RDF Schema specification (W3C ” RDF Vocabulary Description Language”, 2004) does define several Collection classes for aggregation, these classes do not provide semantics for restricting their contents to given classes of entities. To get around this problem and strictly model lists of Criteria and Levels we have defined two additional entities: CriteriaList and LevelList, based off the RDF List Collection.}, interhash = {d70437d273844d580baa478e628f5f80}, intrahash = {0883278bffa958851aa9f43c5786d27d}, keywords = {conference-paper, ontology, rubric, semantic-web}, location = {Barcelona}, month = sep, posted-at = {2011-07-16 03:36:30}, priority = {3}, timestamp = {2011-07-27T01:37:07.000+0200}, title = {{An Ontology for Open Rubric Exchange on the Web}}, url = {http://openaccess.uoc.edu/webapps/o2/handle/10609/5222}, year = 2010 }
