• Elegance
Being able to define the most concepts with the fewest primitives pays off
in most of the preceding use cases.
• Highly Axiomized
The more axioms (formal definitions), the more likely the ontology is
consistent; and the more likely it is consistent, the more it can be used for
inference.
• Complete
The more complete the Enterprise Ontology is, the less likely people will
create concepts outside it.
• Understandable
For people to use it they need to understand it, partially by using well-
agreed terms, but also by virtue of good documentation and
visualization.
• Unambiguous
It should be clear where given concepts need to live in the ontology.
• Consistent
Consistency is both a formal property (are axioms in the ontology in
contradiction?) and a property of the usage of terms.
