An ontology for wireless network nodes, version 0.1
Embedded in this document is an OWL ontology for wireless network nodes - to
see it, view the source. It was constructed along the lines of the notes on
the Wireless Ontology
page on ESW. There is an example of this
ontology in use.
If your browser is not CSS-capable, a mess of words will appear below. This
is because the RDF uses the property element style rather than the property
attribute style, and as a result can't be embedded invisibly into HTML -
it's hidden here with CSS.
