Using Ontology Languages for Conceptual Modeling
Conceptual models are used to support understanding of and communication about application domains in information systems development. Such models are created using modeling grammars (usually employing graphic representation). To be effective, a grammar should support precise representation of domain concepts and their relationships. Ontology languages such as OWL emerged to define terminologie...
متن کاملTowards an Ontology for Conceptual Modeling
Conceptual modeling can be viewed as a way of expressing human understanding of a body of knowledge. This view can be viewed as distinct from standard notions of data modeling and ontology, which seek to directly describe data and reality. We define conceptual interoperability, give use cases and requirements for it, and introduce the Conceptual Model Ontology (CMO), which satisfies the discuss...
متن کاملToward Advanced Visualization Techniques for Conceptual Modeling
Conceptual models and their visualizations play an important role in the in the Information Systems (IS) field. Their track record, however, is mixed. While their benefits are clearly perceived, practitioners also struggle with their use. This paper picks up on a potential factor that limits the effectiveness of conceptual models, namely the poor design rationale behind their visual appearance....
متن کاملEssentialized Conceptual Structures in Ontology Modeling
Psychology and cognitive science show that human concepts possess particular structures (conceptual structures). However, in process of ontology modeling information concerning the structure of human concepts is lost. In ontologies concepts are typically represented as undifferentiated clusters of necessary (and sufficient) conditions. The lack of representation of conceptual structure may caus...
متن کاملMulti-level ontology-based conceptual modeling
Since the late 1980s, there has been a growing interest in the use of foundational ontologies to provide a sound theoretical basis for the discipline of conceptual modeling. This has led to the development of ontology-based conceptual modeling techniques whose modeling primitives reflect the conceptual categories defined in a foundational ontology. The ontology-based conceptual modeling languag...
