Towards Multi-view Functional Knowledge Server Based on a Functional Ontology
نویسندگان
چکیده
In conceptual design, a designer decomposes a required function into subfunctions, so-called functional decomposition. Our functional knowledge server is designed to provide designers alternative ways of achievement of the required function. In order to provide a wide range of alternatives, general ways of achievement are systematized based on an ontology of functional concepts. The server contains the knowledge as an is-a hierarchy and then reorganizes a decision tree suitable for the viewpoint of each designer. The server can facilitate innovative design and negotiation in a concurrent design team.

Query Architecture Expansion in Web Using Fuzzy Multi Domain Ontology
Due to the increasing web, there are many challenges to establish a general framework for data mining and retrieving structured data from the Web. Creating an ontology is a step towards solving this problem. The ontology raises the main entity and the concept of any data in data mining. In this paper, we tried to propose a method for applying the "meaning" of the search system, But the problem ...

MOTIVATION Availability of the sequences of entire genomes shifts the scientific curiosity towards the identification of function of the genomes in large scale as in genome studies. In the near future, data produced about cellular processes at molecular level will accumulate with an accelerating rate as a result of proteomics studies. In this regard, it is essential to develop tools for storing...
متن کاملOntology-based description of functional design knowledge and its use in a functional way server
In conceptual design of engineering devices, a designer decomposes a required function into sub-functions, so-called functional decomposition, using a kind of functional knowledge representing achievement relations among functions. However, such knowledge about functionality of engineering devices is usually left implicit because each designer possesses it. Even if such knowledge is found in do...
متن کاملOntology-based systematization of functional knowledge
It has been recognized that design knowledge is scattered around technology and target domains. One of the two major reasons for it is that different frameworks (viewpoints) for conceptualization of design knowledge are used when people try to describe knowledge in different domains. The other is that several key functional concepts are left undefined or even unidentified. In this paper, we fir...
متن کاملAn Ontology-Based Functional Modeling Approach for Multi-agent Distributed Design on the Semantic Web
This paper describes a preliminary attempt at using Semantic Web paradigm, especially the Web Ontology Language (OWL), for functional design knowledge representation during functional modeling in a multi-agent distributed design environment. An ontology-based functional modeling framework is proposed as a prelude to a meaningful agent communication for collaborative functional modeling. Formal ...
