Class Diagram Description
Figure 1 illustrates the use of the Agreement Ontology to represent agreements at different levels of detail. The example shown captures a complex, disjunctive agreement that can be decomposed into two simple agreements. One option (“agr0012”) describes “alice”’s right to have lawn maintenance be performed by “bob”, (also read “bob”’s duty to perform lawn maintenance for “alice”).
