DILIGENT: Towards a fine-grained methodology for Distributed, Loosely-controlled and evolving Engineering of oNTologies

چکیده
Ontology engineering processes in truly distributed settings like the Semantic Web or global peer-to-peer systems may not be adequately supported by conventional, centralized ontology engineering methodologies. In this paper, we present our work towards the DILIGENT methodology, which is intended to support domain experts in a distributed setting to engineer and evolve ontologies with the help of a fine-grained methodological approach based on Rhetorical Structure Theory, viz. the DILIGENT model of ontology engineering by argumentation.

Knowledge management solutions relying on central repositories sometimes have not met expectations, since users often create knowledge ad-hoc using their individual vocabulary and using their own decentral IT infrastructure (e.g., their laptop). To improve knowledge management for such decentralized and individualized knowledge work, it is necessary to, first, provide a corresponding IT infrast...

A prerequisite to the success of the Semantic Web are shared ontologies which enable the seamless exchange of information between different parties. Engineering a shared ontology is a social process. Since its participants have slightly different views on the world, a harmonization effort requires discussing the resulting ontology. During the discussion, participants exchange arguments which ma...
متن کاملThe DILIGENT knowledge processes
Case Study Purpose: The ontology engineering methodology DILIGENT is presented, a methodology focussing on the evolution of ontologies instead of the initial design, thus recognizing that knowledge is a tangible and moving target. Approach: First we describe the methodology as a whole, then detailing one of the five main steps of DILIGENT. The second part describes case studies, either already ...
