API4KP - API for Knowledge Platforms

This repository contains the technical documents that constitute the response to the OMG API4KP standard RFP.

The API for Knowledge Platforms (API4KP) standard is based on a model-driven architecture that combines UML models, OWL ontologies and OpenAPI specifications to define a platform, technology, and vendor independent way to build Knowledge Based Systems.
