PMCID: PMC2243933  PMID: 11079977

Part-whole relations play a critical role in the OpenGALEN Common Reference Model. We describe how particular characteristics of the underlying formalism have influenced GALEN's view on partonomy, and in more detail discuss how specific modelling issues have driven development of an extended set of partitive semantic links.
