Abstract: Taxonomies are an important part of conceptual modeling. They provide substantial structural information, and are typically the key elements in integration efforts, however there has been little guidance as to what makes a proper taxonomy. We have adopted several notions from the philosophical practice of formal ontology, and adapted them for use in information systems. These tools, identity, essence, unity, and dependence, provide a solid logical framework within which the properties that form ... (Update)
