Abstract: The method comprises at least one cycle comprising the following steps: creating a request (87) designating a target object (81) to be accessed in the tree (80) representing system resources and having a scope of only one level below the target object, using an access protocol attribute of the target object (81) indicating its access protocol (Pc) to allow access to the target object, and obtaining via the request a response that includes at least the naming attribute of each object (82, 83) contained in the scope of the request, and if at least one object contained in the scope of the request has an access protocol different from that of the target object, the access protocol attribute of this object.

Abstract: A system and method lets a user create or import ontologies and create databases and related application software. These databases can be specially tuned to suit a particular need, and each comes with the same error-detection rules to keep the data clean. Such databases may be searched based on meaning, rather than on words-that-begin-with-something. And multiple databases, if generated from the same basic ontology can communicate with each other without any additional effort. Ontology management and generation tools enable enterprises to create databases that use ontologies to improve data integration, maintainability, quality, and flexibility. Only the relevant aspects of the ontology are targeted, extracting out a sub-model that has the power of the full ontology restricted to objects of interest for the application domain. To increase performance and add desired database characteristics, this sub-model is translated into a database system.
