Towards a Simple but Useful Ontology Design Pattern Representation Language

The need for a representation language for ontology design patterns has long been recognized. However, the body of literature on the topic is still rather small and does not sufficiently reflect the diverse requirements on such a language. Herein, we propose a simple but useful and extendable approach which is fully compatible with the Web Ontology Language and should be easy to adopt by the community.
