description: An ontology for describing software components, including their metadata
  (attribution, licensing, usage instructions, how to get support) and their inputs,
  outputs and variables. The ontology extends schema.org and codemeta vocabularies
  and is based on OntoSoft, which proposed a vocabulary for describing software by
  asking scientists questions.
