Winstonpartwhole Pattern¶
Source: ODP portal · Published by: daselab.org · Category: structural · Domain: general
In what way is one thing part of another - as a component of it, one of its members, a portion of it, the stuff it is made of, a feature of it, or a place within it?; Is a component of a component also a component of the whole thing, and does the same carry over for a member of a member of a collection, a portion of a portion, or the material that a thing's material is made of?; Which larger area is a given thing located in, once you follow the chain of wholes it belongs to?
What it answers¶
- In what way is one thing part of another - as a component of it, one of its members, a portion of it, the stuff it is made of, a feature of it, or a place within it?
- Is a component of a component also a component of the whole thing, and does the same carry over for a member of a member of a collection, a portion of a portion, or the material that a thing's material is made of?
- Which larger area is a given thing located in, once you follow the chain of wholes it belongs to?
The pattern¶
The graph is the axioms the pattern asserts; nothing here is inferred. Drag to rearrange, scroll to zoom, and use the graph's own search box to find a term inside it.
Opens at level of detail 3: classes, individuals, properties and restrictions, without the literals. Raise it with the LOD control in the graph's own toolbar to see annotation values and anything a reasoner adds.
Should you use this one?¶
| Size | 0 classes, 8 properties, 41 axioms |
| Brings in | nothing - it stands on its own |
| Reasoning | HermiT refuses this pattern rather than answering about it: it falls outside OWL 2 DL, so no DL reasoner can draw conclusions from it. You can still borrow its terms and its shape, but do not expect a reasoner to work with the pattern as published. |
A reasoner objects to this pattern: outside OWL 2 DL
HermiT refuses this pattern rather than answering about it: it falls outside OWL 2 DL, so no DL reasoner can draw conclusions from it. You can still borrow its terms and its shape, but do not expect a reasoner to work with the pattern as published.
This is how its authors published it. OntoBoard reports it rather than silently repairing somebody else's pattern. See Choosing a pattern for what to do about it.
Check it yourself: the published pattern · an archived copy · the ontology itself.
If a link does not open
ontologydesignpatterns.org, which publishes most of this library, does
not currently answer over HTTPS, and its wiki redirects submission pages
to its front page. The archived copy is there for exactly that reason.
The ontology files themselves are still served over plain HTTP.
Terms it declares¶
The 8 classes and properties this pattern models, as the recommender scores them. Annotation properties and built-ins are excluded, because an annotation property is not modelling.

An example of it in use¶
The pattern says what may be asserted; this says it. The graph below is a small set of individuals that instantiate the classes above and are connected by its properties, so the shape the pattern describes is visible as data rather than as a schema.
Import this pattern into your own ontology from inside Protégé: OntoBoard → Reuse → Pattern library…, which hands it to Import terms… and writes the term list, the module, the import and the catalog entry the way ODK expects. See Working with ODK.
