Terms related to Project
- Python
Application programming language used to build several Ontomatica services. Python is the main scripting language used at Google.
- Prototype
Baseline for specifying USDA Complete System requirements using existing Ontomatica capabilities.
- Severity Level 1
Bug or issue affects a crucial part of complete system, and must be fixed in order for it to resume normal operation.
- Severity Level 3
Bug or issue affects a minor part of complete system, and has very little impact on its operation. This severity level is assigned when a non-central requirement of a system (and with lower importance) is affected.
- Severity Level 2
Bug or issue affects a minor part of complete system, but has some impact on its operation. This severity level is assigned when a non-central requirement of a system is affected.
- Graph
Composed of vertices (nodes) and lines (edges) that connect them. Ontomatica graphs are directed acyclic graphs that represent things or events, and causal relationships between them.
- Ilustration
Depicts how a concept works. Illustration (illo) may be a Figure (image or SVG file); a Table; or, a Graph (directed acyclic graph).
- Parser
Deposition service that reads food record from GS1 data stream. Using a lexical analyzer and regular expression, parser matches tokens from data stream to ontology terms. Parser output is used to update graphs and build a new application instance for quality assurance.
- OnTop
Deposition service to parse inputs and generate outputs.
- Landing Page
Displays all facets and data properties for a specific Item.
- Listing Page
Displays items that share facets and predicates.
- Item
Food record in electronic format.
- Depositor
Food supplier that submits information about food items to label project.
- Modified Specification
Functional changes and additions to prototype to fulfill specifications for complete system.
- Infrastructure Service
Hardware and software to execute and manage all services.
- Class
Hierarchy of facet terms and/or predicate terms.
- Taxonomy
Hierarchy of facets in a specific knowledge domain. Base of taxonomy is called a facet. Term in hierarchy is called facet term (FT). Code assigned to facet term is called facet term code (FTC). Taxonomy does not include predicates, formal classes, expressions or axioms.
- End User
Individual consumer who accesses complete system information with respect to food purchasing decisions.
- User
Individual who accesses complete system.
- Data Service
Information stored in and presented from REST services and MySQL database to implement label project features.
- Complete System
Integration of application, deposition, data, infrastructure and operation services to implement label project specifications.
- Future Feature
Label class not in complete system. Example: integration with Linked Data.

- Relationship
Line (edge) expressing connection between facets and facet terms in a graph. Logically, a relationship is a verb.
- Data
Literals (numbers and letters).
- Navigation
Map applications, such as Google Maps, display points-of-interest when a user selects and navigates different routes to a destination. For label project, landscape is represented as graphs (rather than maps) and a user navigates facets and predicates to display foods-of-interest.
- Label Project
Name of USDA project to deliver branded food label information from a web server.
- Application Service
Navigator, label classes, and related services to implement label project features.
- Navigator
Ontomatica application that traverses graphs and enables a user to view one or more facets in a taxonomy. As of 2014, Navigator’s ability to generate a multi-facet listing page is unique in technology marketplace.
- OnTarget
Ontomatica collection of development services tools.
- OnCall
Ontomatica customer services.
- OnDemand
Ontomatica Infrastructure, data and operating services.
- OntoLogics
Ontomatica process of defining graphs and related services such as classes, predicates and data.
- Deposition Service
Ontomatica service for registering research and related data in a structured format for integration with other data deposits.
- OnLine
Ontomatica web-based deposition system.
- Food Compiler
Person who analyzes food data, calculates representative data, acquires related data from other sources, estmates value of data from similar foods, and calculates multi-ingredient food values
- Development
Process of adding or changing facets, predicates and items to prototype or complete system.
- OntoMation
Process of managing Development, Quality Assurance and Production.
- Quality Assurance
Process when Development version is evaluated and tested by specific professionals or users.
- Production
Process when Quality Assurance version is promoted to public access.
- Metadata
Same as terms in taxonomy.
- Label Class
Set of facets and predicates required to implement USDA label project.
- Ontology
Set of statements about a domain of knowledge. Statements in Ontomatica ontologies are implemented as graphs.
- Fail-over
Switching to a redundant or standby computer server, system, hardware component or network upon the failure or abnormal termination of the previously active application, server, system, hardware component, or network.

- Predicate
Type (single) or hierarchy (class) of relationship. Type or class term is called predicate term. Code assigned to predicate term (PT) is called predicate term code (PTC).
- USDA Mathematics
USDA algorithm - integrated with deposition services - that assigns new data values during parser operation. Data values are numbers for chemical methods and chemical terms otherwise not available from depositor.
- Curator
USDA professional who manages item life-cycle. Item life-cycle has five dates: (1) creation; (2) deposition; (3) hold; (4) modification; and, (5) deprecation. See Data Services for detail.
- Facet
Vertex (node) in a graph. Logically, a facet is a noun. Type or class term is called facet term. Code assigned to facet term (FT) is called facet term code (FTC).
- Vocal
Vocal (acronym for Latin phrase “Vocabularium Alimentarum” – Vocabulary of Food) is a controlled vocabulary of food. Vocal is organized as a taxonomy.
