Ontological engineering is referred to the explanation of abstract concepts like events time physical objects and beliefs.

Characteristics

A general-purpose ontology should be applicable in more or less any special-purpose domain (with the addition of domain-specific axioms).

In any sufficiently demanding domain, different areas of knowledge must be unified, because reasoning and problem solving could involve several areas simultaneously. A robot circuit-repair system, for instance, needs to reason about circuits in terms of electrical connectivity and physical layout, and about time, both for circuit timing analysis and estimating labor costs. The sentences describing time therefore must be capable of being combined with those describing spatial layout and must work equally well for nanoseconds and minutes and for angstroms and meters.
