Pluggable ontology artefacts to support context-awareness and personalization.
All ontology artifacts follow the same development agenda and structure, which is outlined in this page in a general way. If there is any specificity it will be noted. {| class="uaal_project_id_card" border="1" style="cellspacing=0; bordercolor=gray; align=left; valign=top;"

== Current status == |}
PERSONA had bundled the whole ontologies in only three bundles: (1) The Context Awareness Supporting Framework (CASF) Ontology contained an eclectic set of ontology domains. Domains ranged from the most basic "physical thing" and "location" concepts to other concepts needed for the integration of devices, such as "temperature". (2) The profiling ontology contained all data related to user model. It was based on the CASF ontology and defined multiple user types and accordingly profiles, each with specific additional information such as identification, preferences, impairments and illnesses. (3) An extension to the CASF ontology with simultaneous reference to the profiling ontology that was bundled separately in order to avoid cyclic references between the CASF and profiling ontologies.
When importing to universAAL, we started to split the original artefacts to several smaller ontology modules to be able to work on their improvement more effectively while supporting a better management of ontological dependencies (e.g., generally resolving the possible problems with cycles) and facilitating the efficient deployment of ontology modules.
Each ontology artifact has its own particularities, which are explained in their corresponding wiki pages (see last section).
== Artefact description ==
A detailled description of the artefact is available in the [[Guidelines|Guidelines for ontologies]].
== Testcases ==
* All tests of context management related components must use, as much as possible, this component for their tests.
* Check with developers how easy it is to instantiate information with this ontology.
* In case some changes in the loading of ontologies are introduced in the middleware, test if it allows to integrate these concepts in casf.ont or other artifacts.
* Check that the division into different artifacts per domain is correct and sensible.
