英文摘要：

Basic theory system of traditional Chinese medicine is an important part of the theory system of traditional Chinese medicine, and knowledge management and sharing of the traditional Chinese medicine is restricted by unique knowledge system of the traditional Chinese medicine due to its structural weakness and representation problems. Reasonable knowledge representation method adopted to canonically express the basic theory system of traditional Chinese medicine with distinctive nuance, exact concept and reasonable structure, will help to achieve the knowledge management and sharing of the traditional Chinese medicine. Ontology enables knowledge representation to achieve three functions： classification, theorization and sharing. The establishment of knowledge model of basic theory system of the traditional Chinese medicine by means of ontology language can be used for knowledge representation of the traditional Chinese medicine theory.
