Slide 2 Presentation Overview Introductory Remarks Definitions of Main Concepts Modeled The Main Classes in the QUDT Ontology (with examples) Functions for Unit Conversion and Computing Products/Quotients of Quantity Kinds Current and Future Work References and Credits

Slide 3 Introductory Remarks Sponsored by NASAs Constellation Program –30+ year space exploration program to return to the moon and eventually send humans to Mars –Investing in Semantic Technologies to meet short term and long term -ilities Affordability; Sustainability; Operability; etc. One of a set of related ontologies designed to support the Constellation Program Lifecycle, as well as domain specific areas, including –Telemetry and command –Modeling and simulation

Slide 4 Main Concepts Modeled (I) Quantity Kind - an observable and measurable property of objects, systems, or events that is independent of any particular measurement or expression of magnitude –Mass, Velocity, Power, Torque, etc. Quantity - the magnitude of a quantity kind for a particular object, system, event, or class of that can be expressed as a numerical value with respect to a chosen scale –Mass of a hydrogen atom, Escape velocity of the Earth, Duration of this teleconference, etc.
© Copyright 2009 TopQuadrant Inc. Slide 5 Main Concepts Modeled (II) Unit of Measure - a chosen scale for expressing the magnitude of a quantity as a numerical value; units are associated with the quantity kinds they quantify. –Meter, Kilogram, Volt, etc. Quantity Value - the numerical value of a quantitys magnitude with respect to a chosen unit of measure for the corresponding quantity kind –2 Meters, 5 Kilograms, 1000 Volts, etc.

Slide 6 Main Concepts Modeled (III) Quantity System - a collection of quantity kinds comprised of a base set and a derived set such that each member of the collection can be expressed as a product of members of the base set raised to a rational power. Unit System - a collection of units in which each member is a measurement scale for a quantity kind in a corresponding quantity system.
© Copyright 2009 TopQuadrant Inc. Slide 7 Main Concepts Modeled (IV) System Dimension - a mapping from a tuple of rational numbers to a product of base quantity kinds such that the tuple members correspond to the exponents of the base quantity kinds; each quantity kind in a system corresponds to exactly one system dimension; multiple quantity kinds may correspond to the same dimension.
