What needs to be demonstrated in a SUO?



Title: Message
SUO WG,
 
    I think it's fair to say the concept of a 'standard upper ontology' needs some technology demonstrations, probably of multiple technical issues. 
 
    This thread asks "What needs to be demonstrated in a SUO?" and "What is the current state-of-the-art (i.e. papers, other demos) such a demo would build on?" 
 
    Let's try to keep away from which candidate upper ontology might be best.  I'd like to see given tech demos try several candidates.
 

 I'll seed this thread with one issue:
 
ISSUE:  Demonstrate how a hierarchy of a single upper, multiple domain, and multiple sub-domain ontologies will enable some useful level of queries and inferencing across domains.     
 
     Has this capability been demonstrated?  Do any papers address it?
