The final FOUST template, followed by all contributions, has the following core structure, where we use I O i to denote generically some foundational ontology: Introduction: I An introduction to the ontology, together with some historical background and motivations i . Upper ontologies, BFO, DOLCE, GFO, GUM, TUpper, UFO, YAMATO, Foundational ontologies The TUpper Ontology has developed quite recently since around 2017 (Grüninger et al., [16]) and is designed as a top-level ontology that contains modules from ontologies within existing international standards, extended so as to satisfy the criteria for top level ontologies specified in ISO/IEC 21838-1. In developing ontologies for application to information systems, however, researchers have often taken pains to draw a line between what they are doing and philosophical ontology, on the grounds that the goals of the two enterprises are quite different, with applied ontology answerable to pragmatic concerns supposedly absent from purely philosophical pursuits.
