OWL/RDF (JSON-LD) has its pros and cons and “maybe” it be part of the answer (but not the whole answer), but I’m not sure about

Mainly Europeans have focused more on it, I see fewer focus from North America, mainly the USA

Also, STEP in its further versions has a lot of great features, but I don’t know why bSI doesn’t go ahead in this part (or maybe I’m not aware and should wait to see some features that can help with)

I explained here my approach:

In Geometry/Topology (Modeling) I follow a Top-Down as well as Bottom-Up approach (which Procedural Design is part of it in compination of a Non-Procedural approach)

In Data/Information/Knowledge area I follow the CDE approach which SysML+Modelica is part of it

I have a clear picture about what am I want and what I want to build which mainly is based on Modeling and Simulation-based Systems Engineering (M&SBSE)
