About Ontology

In computer science, an ontology is the product of an attempt to formulate an exhaustive and rigorous conceptual schema about a domain. An ontology is typically a hierarchical data structure containing all the relevant entities and their relationships and rules within that domain (eg. a domain ontology). The computer science usage of the term ontology is derived from the much older usage of the term ontology in philosophy.

In philosophy, ontology (from the Greek ον = being and λόγος = word/speech) is the most fundamental branch of metaphysics. It studies being or existence as well as the basic categories thereof -- trying to find out what entities and what types of entities exist. Ontology has strong implications for the conceptions of reality.
