We deal with a variety of relations between entities in these categories, including the is-a relation among universals and the part-of relation among individuals as well as cross-category relations such as instance-of, member-of, and partition-of. We show that an adequate understanding of the formal properties of such relations -- in particular their behavior with respect to time -- is critical for formal ontology. We provide examples to support this thesis from the domain of biomedicine.},publisher = {IOS Press},author = {Thomas Bittner and Maureen Donnelly and Barry Smith},editor = {Achille Varzi and Laure Vieu},year = {2004},title = {Individuals, Universals, Collections: On the Foundational Relations of Ontology}}@
