Titre Modules sémantiques robustes pour une réutilisation saine en DL-lite Auteurs

More and more modern data management systems are defined using ontologies. Ontologies provide the basis for structuring data of a given application domain, possibly coming from multiple sources, in order to facilitate their interrogation. In many application domains, comprehensive ontologies resulting from collaborative initiatives are made available. Such well-established ontologies are often associated with reliable data – carefully collected and verified –, thus providing reference data management systems in different domains of application. To build a new system with specific needs, it is therefore a good practice to start from an existing reference system, to extract a fragment (called a module) that is relevant to our needs, and then to enrich this fragment with new data and knowledge proper to our own
