Ontology development
-
The hard work is to create
the ontologies
-
- requires a good knowledge of the area to be described
- some communities have good expertise already (e.g.,
librarians)
-
OWL is just a tool to formalize ontologies
-
Large scale ontologies are often developed in a community
process
-
Ontologies should be shared
and
reused
-
- can be via the simple namespace mechanisms…
- …or via explicit inclusions
-
Applications can also be developed with very small ontologies,
though
