论文摘要
欧洲材料和建模本体论（EMMO）最近在计算分子工程和多尺度建模社区中作为顶级本体学，旨在支持语义互操作性和数据集成解决方案，例如用于研究数据基础架构。 The present work explores how top-level ontologies that are based on the same paradigm - the same set of fundamental postulates - as the EMMO can be applied to models of physical systems and their use in computational engineering practice.这种范式结合了序列学（扩展为Mereotopology）和符号学（遵循Peirce的方法），在这里被称为Mereosemiotics。比较了多种可以想象的实施Mererosemoiotics的方法，并且表征了由此范式之后的顶级本体论类型组成的设计空间。
The European Materials and Modelling Ontology (EMMO) has recently been advanced in the computational molecular engineering and multiscale modelling communities as a top-level ontology, aiming to support semantic interoperability and data integration solutions, e.g., for research data infrastructures. The present work explores how top-level ontologies that are based on the same paradigm - the same set of fundamental postulates - as the EMMO can be applied to models of physical systems and their use in computational engineering practice. This paradigm, which combines mereology (in its extension as mereotopology) and semiotics (following Peirce's approach), is here referred to as mereosemiotics. Multiple conceivable ways of implementing mereosemiotics are compared, and the design space consisting of the possible types of top-level ontologies following this paradigm is characterized.
