Information System Design Based on a Domain Ontology and User Requirements
نویسندگان
چکیده
Domain ontologies can support the production of the conceptual schema of a database but lack the behavioral properties that are necessary to generate an operational Information System. We present an approach to enrich a domain ontology by properties extracted from the User Requirements. Besides determining the required subset of the ontology, we produce the database of the Information System and its API. This approach is implemented by the ISIS (Information System Initial Specification) platform that generates automatically an operational Information System, including a prototypical Graphical User Interface that enables the users to validate the expressed needs and refine them if necessary. Thanks to a reduction of the cycle « expressionrefinement of needs / production of target system / validation » the number of these cycles can increase without impacting the global cost of the project and the final result is closer to the real needs of the users.

Public Transport Ontology for Passenger Information Retrieval
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...

Introduction: Requirements Engineering process is a crucial phase in software development. In order to achieve a successful design of health information systems (HISs), applying the best methodologies is essential. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to design pediatrics Epilepsy Information System (EPIS) as well as the use of triangulation approach in elicitation and validation of epil...
متن کاملOntology-Based Domain-Driven Design
This paper suggests a method for designing domain-specific models of software applications, based on the use of domain ontologies. We will illustrate that the application objects of a domain-specific component can be derived from ontological categories for the domain and the application behavior can be modeled as aspects that cross-cut the application objects. The method leads to a specific arc...
متن کاملIntegrating Behavioral Properties in an Ontology to Automatically Produce an Information System
The use of domain ontologies lies at the very heart of Information Systems, as they provide a shared conceptualization of domains. However, using an ontology, which by essence embraces a wide range of concepts, poses several questions among which the determination of the subset of its concepts that is actually needed for an application and how this sub-ontology can support the production of Inf...
متن کاملQuery 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 ...
