Validation and Reasoning over Objects Using Ontologies
A. G. Razumovsky, e-mail: razumovsky.andrey@gmail.com, M. G. Panteleev

Syntax of object-oriented (OO) language such as Java is not so expressive and doesn't contain similiar semantic constructs as ontology web language does. Therefore, many rules and constrains of the domain cannot be modeled using those languages. Establishing a mapping between similar constructs of OO-languages and ontologies would help expanding validation and reasoning that are usually used over ontologies, to the objects.

Keywords: ontologies, object-oriented programming, software development
