Ontological Behavior Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article gives an example of improving the effectiveness of behavior modeling languages using ontological techniques. The techniques are applied to behaviors in the Unified Modeling Language (UML), using the logical meanings for classification introduced in UML 2. The article suggests unifying UML’s three kinds of behavior languages around the abstract syntax and semantics of composite structure, UML’s model for capturing interconnection of parts of classes. This significantly simplifies the UML metamodel, provides a formal semantics to clarify ambiguities in the current informal semantics, and increases the expressiveness of UML behaviors.

An Ontological User Modeling Approach Using Wikipedia’s Content for Cross-System Personalization
In this work, we are building a personalization engine for web pages across systems by using Wikipedia’s content as an ontological model. The model captures domain topics of any web page for user modeling purposes. Our system formulates a semantic user profile by analyzing the user’s browsing behavior, assuming that frequent browsing in a topical area implies a user’s interest in that area. We ...
متن کاملOntological User Profile Modeling for Context-Aware Application Personalization
Existing context-aware adaptation techniques are limited in their support for user personalization. There is relatively less developed research involving adaptive user modeling for user applications in the emerging areas of mobile and pervasive computing. This paper describes the creation of a User Profile Ontology for context-aware application personalization within mobile environments. We ana...
متن کاملCoping with Unintended Behavior of Users and Products: Ontological Modelling of Product Functionality and Use
The function-behavior representation language FBRL was originally devised for modeling and knowledge management of intended product behavior. This paper explores its potential for application to other-than-intended behavior in a product-use context by introducing consideration of the user and the environment. We found that slightly adapted building blocks from as-is FBRL can be applied to behav...
متن کاملThe ontological deficiencies of process modeling in practice
The ontological deficiencies of process modeling in practice. ABSTRACT Business process modeling is widely regarded as one of the most popular forms of conceptual modeling. However, little is known about the capabilities and deficiencies of process modeling grammars and how existing deficiencies impact actual process modeling practice. This paper is a first contribution towards a theory-driven,...
متن کاملOntological Foundations of Medical Information Systems
The modeling of knowledge and implementing it in software systems is not sufficiently supported by proper guidelines and well-established principles. An interdisciplinary approach seems to be necessary because the development of guidelines for ontologically sound knowledge modeling – in particular in medicine – requires knowledge and expertise from areas such as linguistics, informatics, medici...
