	abstract = {In this article, Thomas Gruber explores the development of ontologies for knowledge sharing. Gruber defines an ontology as an explicit conceptualization, where conceptualization means a collection of like entities. Gruber emphasizes that most ontologies are about consistency not completeness. Because ontologies are designed, researchers can choose how something is represented. Gruber advocates for the use of five different standards when developing an ontology: clarity, coherence, extendability, minimal encoding bias, and minimal ontological commitment. Gruber acknowledges that some "tradeoffs" must be made because not all criteria work together. Gruber then transitions into a series of case studies where he create and critiques examples of ontologies in both engineering and bibliographical situations. Gruber concludes by articulating that it is critical to define conceptual entities instead of just specifying elements when creating an ontology.},
