Ontological foundations for structural conceptual models
TL;DR: The main objective here is to provide ontological foundations for the most fundamental concepts in conceptual modeling to contribute to the theory of conceptual modeling and ontology representation.
On Ontology, ontologies, Conceptualizations, Modeling Languages, and (Meta)Models
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the relations between ontology and ontologies in the philosophical sense with domain ontologies and discuss a set of criteria that a modeling language should meet in order to be considered a suitable language to model phenomena in a given domain, and present a systematic framework for language evaluation and design.

Grounding Software Domain Ontologies in the Unified Foundational Ontology (UFO): The case of the ODE Software Process Ontology.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the latest developments in the UFO ontology and elaborate on the relevance of these foundational ontologies in the development of domain ontologies by showing a case study in the software process domain.

Towards ontological foundations for conceptual modeling: The unified foundational ontology (UFO) story
TL;DR: The paper describes the historical context in which UFO was conceived, briefly discusses its stratified organization, and reports on a number of applica- tions of this foundational ontology over more than a decade, namely, the development of the conceptual modeling language OntoUML.
