چکیده

Creating and designing an ontology is a complex task requiring discussions between domain and ontology engineering experts as well as the users of an ontology. We present the Cicero tool, that facilitates efficient discussions and accelerates the convergence to decisions. Furthermore, by integrating it with an ontology editor, it helps to improve the documentation of an ontology.

C-ODO: an OWL Meta-model for Collaborative Ontology Design

The design and maintenance of ontologies is a complex social collaborative activity, and this is true especially for semantic-web ontologies. On the one hand, such activity calls for the availability of tools providing support to typical operations such as the reuse of existing ontologies and design patterns, the re-engineering of thesauri, lexicons, folksonomies, database schemas, and knowledg...

ENHANCED DESIGN CHECKING INVOLVING CONSTRAINTS, COLLABORATION AND ASSUMPTIONS Ontology-supported Rationale for Collaborative Argumentation

The design process involves selecting between design alternatives based on the requirements and constraints defining the system being developed. The design alternatives and the reasons for selecting one over another form the Design Rationale (DR) for the system. This information represents the designers’ intent and can be used to evaluate the design alternatives and determine the impact on the ...

Folksonomies behind the scenes

In this position paper we analyze the similarities amongst folksonomies, semantic wikis, and ontology building; we also propose an alignment and orchestration of ontologies representing these scenarios. We argue that such alignment enables a more direct application of folksonomybased approaches over these set-ups. The rationale behind folksonomies is shared across environments such as collabora...

The HCOME-3O Framework for Supporting the Collaborative Engineering of Evolving Ontologies

Nowadays it is widely accepted that ontologies, the key technology for the realization of the Semantic Web, are artefacts that are collaboratively and iteratively developed/evolved, shared, evaluated and discussed within communities of knowledge workers. To enhance the potential of ontologies to be collaboratively engineered and be consistently evolved within and between different communities, ...

PragmatiX: An Interactive Tool for Visualizing the Creation Process Behind Collaboratively Engineered Ontologies

With the emergence of tools for collaborative ontology engineering, more and more data about the creation process behind collaborative construction of ontologies is becoming available. Today, collaborative ontology engineering tools such as Collaborative Protégé offer rich and structured logs of changes, thereby opening up new challenges and opportunities to study and analyze the creation of co...
