F.6 ConML + CHARM – Conceptual Modelling Language and Cultural Heritage Abstract Reference Model
F.6.1 Overview
ConML is a conceptual modelling language that has been constructed from scratch with three major goals in mind:
- Ease of use for non-experts in information technologies.
- Simplicity.
- Expressiveness in complex domains, such as those in the humanities
- Capturing “soft” issues such as temporality, subjectivity and vagueness.
CHARM is a cultural heritage abstract reference model that extends ConML.
From http://www.conml.org/ and http://www.charminfo.org/.

F.6.2 Top-level
F.6.3 Key characteristics
ConML(+CHARM) is a lightweight foundational ontology. It has few foundational ontological commitments. The combined ontology is focussed on its domain.
