Joint Doctrine Ontology Project

The goal of this project is to create a formal representation of the content of (selected parts of) Doctrine that is designed to help

  • understand logically how different parts of doctrine interact
  • visualize how different parts of doctrine interact
  • understand dependences between definitions,
  • ensure that changes in definitions cascade appropriately through all dependent definitions
  • enabling more efficient web access to and discovery of doctrinal knowledge and definitions of a sort that will facilitate greater coordination of training and operations particular as these involve IT systems working alongside human beings.

The project is directed by Barry Smith, whose work is carried out under two Rome Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) projects "MAMA" and "Living Plan". The project has the support of Lt Col James McArthur, Chief, Joint Doctrine Division, J-7, Joint Staff.

The project will begin with a small number of modules focusing on:

1. Capstone (JP 1-0)
2. Planning (JP 5-0)
3. Airforce Planning ([http://static.e-publishing.af.mil/production/1/af_cv/publication/afdd3-0/afdd3-0.pdf
4. Civil Operations (JP 3-57)
TBD: Operational Environment

Initially we are focusing on review of existing definitions to identify and fix logical errors. Further down the road we anticipate that the work of formal representation of the definitions will help us to do things like:
