eXtreme Design with Content Ontology Design Patterns

Integrating Ontology Debugging and Matching into the eXtreme Design Methodology

Ontology design patterns (ODPs) and related ontology development methodologies were designed as ways of sharing and reusing best practices in ontology engineering. However, while the use of these reduces the number of issues in the resulting ontologies defects can still be introduced into the ontology due to improper use or misinterpretation of the patterns. Thus, the quality of the developed o...

Engineering Ontologies with Patterns - The eXtreme Design Methodology

Experimenting with eXtreme Design

Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) support reusability and use of best practices in ontology engineering. Previous studies have shown that Content ODPs, in particular, have some measurable beneficial effects on the produced ontologies. However, another conclusion was that methodology and tool support was needed. Now such support exist, in the form of the XD methodology and the XD Tools. In this pa...

Quality of Content Ontology Design Patterns

Ontology Design Patterns for Semantic Web Content

The paper presents a framework for introducing design patterns that facilitate or improve the techniques used during ontology lifecycle. Some distinctions are drawn between kinds of ontology design patterns. Some contentoriented patterns are presented in order to illustrate their utility at different degrees of abstraction, and how they can be specialized or composed. The proposed framework and...
