OntoUML Document Priority Index

This page inventories the current G:\My Drive\Projects\Governance.Foundation\OntoUML document collection and orders it by importance and relevance for Governance Foundation's current Knowledge Ontology work.

Scope​

  • Total files currently in folder: 216
  • This is a working priority index, not a claim that every file is equally important.
  • Higher tiers are the documents most likely to change the ontology, runtime model, glossary, and framework-as-view architecture work.
  • Lower tiers still matter, but are more supporting, domain-specific, duplicate, or tooling-oriented.

Tier 1 - Core reading (highest importance / direct architectural relevance)​

These are the documents most central to Governance Foundation's current direction.

Suggested execution order​

  1. Finish Tier 1 fully
  2. Use Tier 2 to harden the runtime model, glossary, and validation rules
  3. Use Tier 3 to extend the ontology into enterprise/governance/legal/service/risk domains
  4. Use Tier 4 when moving from ontology thinking into modeling workflows, tools, and rule enforcement
  5. Mine Tier 5 selectively when a concrete modeling gap appears

Current practical recommendation​

For Governance Foundation's immediate next work, the highest-value unfinished reading concentration is still:

  • UFO foundations
  • events / scenes / situations
  • relators / reification / truthmaking
  • enterprise architecture and process ontology mapping
  • validation / domain constraints / operationalization support

That sequence will do the most to sharpen the Knowledge Ontology runtime, glossary, extraction rules, and framework-view translation approach.
