| Competency Questions | For example, in the case of the representation of the "wine" domain concept:
In the case of the representation of the "pizza" domain concept:
|
| Scenarios | There are cases when the application intended to use the ontology requires the multiple abstractions available to classify the domain concept to be represented in the ontology.
As an example from the object-oriented design, consider the alternative criteria that are avaible to classify the abstraction of a simple domain concepts such as "employee":
Similar examples exist in the ontology design field such us "wine" and "pizza":
