Cost Ontology Database: Data Model OWL 2 DL ontology

Component Specifications

Definition

A specialized database system that organizes cost elements into hierarchical taxonomies with defined relationships, attributes, and metadata for industrial cost analysis. It serves as the knowledge base for the Cost Element Extractor machine, enabling automated identification, classification, and tracking of cost components across manufacturing processes.

Working Principle

Operates on ontology engineering principles using semantic web technologies (RDF, OWL) to create machine-readable cost models. It employs inference engines to deduce relationships between cost elements based on defined rules and axioms, allowing for automated classification and consistency validation of cost data.

Materials

Digital infrastructure: Server hardware (typically enterprise-grade servers with RAID storage), database software (SQL/NoSQL systems like PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or specialized semantic databases like GraphDB), and network components for data integration.
