ontology
An Ontology is a ClassificationScheme that links concepts via many different relations. Ontologies typically are not restricted to binary relations and are structured by several kinds of conceptual hierarchies, including set- or class-based subsumption, spatial containment, mereology (theory of parts and wholes), and logical contexts. Thus, an ontology typically includes multiple taxonomies.
