An organisation ontology for enterprise modelling: preliminary concepts for linking structure and behaviour
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents our preliminary exploration into an organisation ontology for the TOVE enterprise model. The ontology puts forward a number of conceptualizations for modeling organisations: agents, roles, positions, goals, communication, authority, commitment. Its primary focus has been in linking structure and behaviour through the concept of empowerment. Empowerment is the right of an organisation agent to perform status changing actions. This linkage is critical to the unification of enterprise models and their executability.

متن کاملOn Ontologies And Enterprise Modelling
From a design perspective, an enterprise model should provide the language used to explicitly define an enterprise. We need to be able to explore alternative models in the design of enterprises spanning organisation structure and behaviour. In order to reason about alternative designs for enterprises, we need to reason about different possible sets of constraints for enterprises within the mode...
