The main contribution of this paper is the working case study for meta-modeling process performed in open ontologies. It contrasts to close ontology based approaches well known from software engineering discipline. Moreover, in place of ontological standards like Resource Description Framework (RDF) defined by World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) or Web Ontology Language (OWL) by W3C and Object Management Group (OMG), the presented meta-modeling approach is based on notions characteristic for software engineering, like class, relationship, Unified Modeling Language (UML), UML Profile, stereotype, meta-model as well as for enterprise applications. This approach is feasible as it refers to the concept of Context-Driven Meta-Modeling (CDMM) introduced in previous papers and implemented in the form of Context-Driven Meta-Modeling Framework (CDMM-F). The case study is realized in the form of graphical UML modeling of the modeling language (meta-model) in the Context-Driven Meta-Modeling Meta-Modeler (CDMM-Meta-Modeler) Thus the presented case-study constitutes the proof-of-the-concept for graphical meta-modeling for all mentioned concepts and their implementations. It also displays the nature of the meta-modeling process in this paradigm and explains some mechanisms that play important role when process effectiveness and convenience of the meta-model designer are taken into account.
