A Discussion of the Relationship Between RDF-Schema and UML

Representing UML in RDF. (New) A testbed converter that supports automatic translation from UML/XMI to RDFS/RDF/XML is available.

Representing UML in RDF

The UML community developed a set of useful models for representing static and dynamic components of software-intensive systems. UML is an industry standard and serves as a modeling basis for emerging standards in other areas like OIM, CWM etc. As of today there exist a variety of UML vocabularies for describing object models, datatypes, database schemas, transformations etc. The goal of this work is to make UML "RDF-compatible". This allows mixing and extending UML models and the language elements of UML itself on the Web in an open manner.
