Question 4

Using one of the OWL editors (e.g., Protégé or SWOOP), write an ontology in OWL about buildings, that includes at least the following concepts:

Building, residential building, house, apartment building, condominium building, duplex, townhouse, owner-occupied, rental, multi-family dwelling, commercial building, mixed commercial-residential building.

You can get an OWL implementation from http://www.cs.ubc.ca/spider/poole/cs502/2006/as3/Building.owl This is interesting because it defines a condominium building (CondoBuilding) in terms of the number of units and the ownership: a condominium building is a residential building, with more than two units and is owner-occupied.
