GerdGroener about SynonymOrEquivalence (SOE) (Revision ID: (SOE)?oldid=5709 5709)

Overall suggestion (score): 0 - needs major revision

Review Summary: The proposed pattern (or anti-pattern) is useful for ontology

engineering, especially for less experienced developers. It focuses a common modeling problem. The proposed anti-pattern is technical sound. However, it is quite simple.

Due to the simplicity of the pattern there are

few discussion issues at WOP.

Reviewer Confidence: The reviewer is familiar with ODPs in general and with the described modeling issue and proposed solution.

Problems: Due to the simplicity of the pattern I doubt that the notion of a

design pattern somehow changes to a collection of simple modeling

primitives.

Community Relevance: Definitely relevant for the community.

Relation to Best Practices: Relevant to best practice modeling.

Reusability: The pattern is reusable.

Relations to Other Patterns:

Overall Understandability: The motivation of the pattern is well written. Unfortunately there is a breakup in the text. The overall description of the pattern is well understandable.

Clear Problem Description: The problem is clearly described.

Clear Relevance and Consequences: The relevance of the pattern and its benefits are given.

Clear Figures and Illustrations: Figures are missing.

Missing Information: Provide simple examples: ontology + description.
