Multiple Vocabulary Facility (MVF) Terms and Definitions Ontology
type: Ontology
abstract: The MVF ontology consists of three components: - a core ontology corresponding to the MVF metamodel, - an extension representing the subset of the ISO 1087 reference vocabulary used in other ISO standards for vocabulary representation (this ontology), - an extension that incorporates additional vocabulary from ISO 1087 for terminology science. MVF also reuses several ontologies from the OMG Commons library for specific patterns, including designations, collections, and classifiers.

example: mechanical mouse: computer mouse in which movements are detected by rollers and a ball

note: Intensional definitions are preferable to other types of definitions because they clearly reveal the characteristics of a concept within a concept system: they should be used whenever possible.

type: Class
subclass of: term
source: ISO 1087 Terminology work and terminology science - Vocabulary, Second edition, 2019-09, clause 3.4.12

definition: extensional definition that enumerates all the partitive concepts of a comprehensive concept on the same hierarchical level
example: Family 18 in the Periodic Table: helium, neon, argon, crypton, xenon and radon.

subject
type: Class
subclass of: Context
source: ISO 1087 Terminology work and terminology science - Vocabulary, Second edition, 2019-09, clause 3.1.5

symbol
type: Class
subclass of: VocabularyEntry
source: ISO 1087 Terminology work and terminology science - Vocabulary, Second edition, 2019-09, clause 3.4.5
definition: designation that represents a concept by non-linguistic means
note: From section 7.5, ISO 704, symbols are an important aid to international communication because their visual representation of concepts functions independently of any given language. They can communicate information directly under difficult circumstances (e.g., traffic signs). Iconic symbols should bear some visual resemblance to the concept they represent. Generally their meaning should be directly apparent without explanation. In some cases, however, the visual resemblance of the symbol is less pronounced or completely lost. Its meaning may be no longer directly recognizable and may be supported only by general agreement. Terms using the letters of the alphabet as iconic symbols to communicate the shape of the letter itself rather than its sound shall not be considered a symbol. Characters that replace words or parts of words, such as mathematical symbols or currency symbols, are considered symbols.
note: There are several types of symbols such as graphical symbols (ISO 3864, all parts) and letter symbols (ISO 80000, all parts).

example: Applying 'layer of clothing' as a criterion of subdivision to 'clothing' yields 'outerwear' and 'underwear' as specific concepts. These concepts are coordinate concepts in relation to their generic concept 'clothing'.
example: For the concept system 'computer mouse' according to ISO 704:2009, 5.5.2.2.1, Example 4 the type of characteristic 'computer connection' is used as a criterion of subdivision to divide the generic concept 'computer mouse into specific concepts such as 'cord mouse' and 'cordless mouse'.
