  Ontology (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An ontology is typically a hierarchical data structure containing all the relevant entities and their relationships and rules within that domain (e.g., a domain ontology).
An ontology which is not tied to a particular problem domain but attempts to describe general entities is known as a foundation ontology or upper ontology.
The criteria for distinguishing a strong ontology from a weak ontology is based on the ability to infer things from a strong but not a weak one: a weak one requires human judgement to draw inferences, and this can't be done automatically.

 Suggested Upper Merged Ontology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Suggested Upper Merged Ontology or SUMO is an upper ontology intended as a foundation ontology for a variety of computer information processing systems.
It was developed by the Teknowledge Corporation and is one candidate for the "Standard Upper Ontology" that IEEE working group 1600.1 is working on.
SUMO concerns itself with meta-level concepts (general entities that do not belong to a specific problem domain), and thereby would lead naturally to a categorization scheme for encyclopedias.

 SUMO Ontology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
SUMO (Suggested Upper Merged Ontology) was developed within the IEEE Standard Upper Ontology Working Group.
An ontology is similar to a dictionary or glossary, but with greater detail and structure that enables computers to process its content.
An upper ontology is limited to concepts that are meta, generic, abstract and philosophical, and therefore are general enough to address (at a high level) a broad range of domain areas.

An upper ontology is limited to concepts that are meta, generic, abstract or philosophical, and hence are general enough to address (at a high level) a broad range of domain areas.

 Internet Alchemy SUMO
SUMO, CYC, WordNet and similar efforts are always kind of fun to explore but I'm always left with a feeling of disappointment.
Using the SUMO browser to explore Artifact a little suggests to me that Artifact is a subclass of IntentionalProcess which is "A Process that has a specific purpose for the CognitiveAgent who performs it.".
SUMO defines a CognitiveAgent as "A SentientAgent with responsibilities and the ability to reason, deliberate, make plans, etc. This is essentially the legal/ethical notion of a person." There are some examples of creatures that might be CognitiveAgents, but it looks to me as if most nest-building creatures would be excluded.

As mentioned in Section 1.2, one goal of this study was to assess the value of using standard upper ontologies in a U.S. Military domain.
Although there are several efforts to develop standard upper ontologies to facilitate mutual understanding, there is no consensus on the value of this approach, and in fact some sources doubt the merits of using upper or universal ontologies.
As described in Section 3.2, upper ontologies are intended to define foundational concepts used in both mid-level and domain ontologies.
