Use of Ontology for Solving Interoperability Problems between Enterprises

چکیده
When trying to solve interoperability problems between enterprises, the semantic issues are important. To date, they are more and more focused on ontology. This paper presents how to use ontology in the PBMEI method, aimed at solving enterprise interoperability problems in modelling environment. During the elaboration of PBMEI, the necessary ontology information is explicitly specified. Because of two different uses of ontologies, this paper proposes two variants of PBMEI. Finally, this paper concludes with the content of the ontologies required in PBMEI. The ontologies in the PBMEI method PBMEI for an application case are being studied.

Instead of the data or information-based interoperability occurring nowadays, many application domains will profit from and strongly require knowledge-based interoperability. In Virtual Enterprises (VE) domain, for example, knowledge-based interoperability is of major importance due to the limitations of data integration supporting the dynamic and ill-specified interconnection of entities. In f...

Passenger information aims at improving the user-friendliness of public transport systems while influencing passenger route choices to satisfy transit user’s travel requirements. The integration of transit information from multiple agencies is a major challenge in implementation of multi-modal passenger information systems. The problem of information sharing is further compounded by the multi-l...
متن کاملProviding a semantic description for an interoperability framework using ontologies
Nowadays enterprises require the development of new solutions that could enhance the interoperability among the partners of a supply chain; a key point in this scenario is represented by data integration mechanisms between such enterprises. In this context semantic descriptions of data and information is emerging as a critical component in a really interoperable framework upon which to implemen...
متن کاملPreventing ontology interoperability problems instead of solving them
A major source of interoperability problems on the Semantic Web are the different vocabularies used in metadata descriptions. This paper argues that instead of solving interoperability problems we should focus more effort on avoiding the problems in the first place, in the spirit of Albert Einstein's quote "Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them". For this purpose, coordinated coll...
متن کاملMeasuring Similarity between Semantic Business Process Models
A business process may be modeled in different ways by different modelers even when utilizing the same modeling language. An appropriate method for solving ambiguity issues in process models caused by the use of synonyms, homonyms or different abstraction levels for process element names is the use of ontologybased descriptions of process models. So-called semantic business process models promi...
