Introduction
Kiwi is a set of ontologies, which are domain-specific vocabularies, for [[/projects/Smaoin]]. These vocabularies are used when expressing information and describing objects which belong to the domain.
Ontologies are usually interconnected. It makes no difference to the information, to which ontology some entity belongs. But by dividing the definitions into domains, managing the vocabularies and their development becomes easier for humans. It also allows people to organize and create vocabularies for their areas of interest and expertise.
The Kiwi ontologies are not special in any way - they are regular ontologies just like any other. But Kiwi is a title for the ontologies developed as part of the Rel4tion project. Many ontologies are the basis for many practical uses of Razom, and common types of applications will need them.
The name “Kiwi” comes from “wiki” with letters switched. The first ontology which entered development was based on the data model of wikis (like this wiki), so I called it Kiwi. Later I added many many new ontologies and the original Kiwi ontology wasn’t just about wikis anymore, but I liked the name and decided to use Kiwi as a title for the ontology development effort in Rel4tion.
