Namespace

**Semantic type:** Conceptual Entity

**Definition:** In general, a namespace is an abstract container, which is or could be filled by names, or technical terms, or words, and these represent or stand for real-world things. A description logic terminology namespace is a collection of Kind, Role, Property and Concept definitions. As in computer programming, context namespaces are intended to allow multiple knowledge bases to reside in the same physical database. (from Apelon)
