In today’s world, the term serious game is becoming more and more popular since these games have a purpose of engaging the user and contributing to the achievement of a specific goal other than pure entertainment games. Serious gaming has high potential and power to transfer knowledge and educate people. Serious games are applied to a large spectrum of application areas ranging from military, g...

This extended abstract describes an ontology design pattern for modeling hazardous situations. We build upon state-of-art models for hazards and hazardous events, and on existing standards in the domain of occupational safety. We also present an example of the application of the pattern in the occupational safety and health domain.

The detector final state is the core element of particle physics analysis as it defines the physical characteristics that form the basis of the measurement presented in a published paper. Although they are a crucial part of the research process, detector final states are not yet formally described, published in papers or searchable in a convenient way. This paper aims at providing an ontology p...

In this paper, we describe a logical ontology design pattern that summarizes a relationship and its inverse between two distinguished members of an n-ary relationship.

the aim of this paper is to review the created problems and failure of environmental design patterns in designing process by designers. not respectfully addressing the context of environment during designing process have resulted in the loss quality of environment, damage to both nature and essence of environment as manifested in the case study area. methodology of the research was based on the...

Design patterns provide reusable solutions for recurring design problems. They constitute an important tool for improving software quality. However, correct usage of design patterns depends to a large extent on the designer. Design patterns often include models that describe the suggested solutions, while other aspects of the patterns are neglected or described informally only in text. Furtherm...

In this paper we present the Reactor Pattern to enable the modelling of processes that consume inputs and produce outputs under specific environmental conditions and on being triggered by certain events. Reactor pattern is a content ontology design pattern and is especially targeted towards modelling reactive processes with a “black box” view of the process.

The problem domain of a design pattern describes the problem context in which the pattern can be applied. In general, determining the applicability of a pattern to a particular problem heavily relies on the knowledge and experience the developer has with the pattern. This significantly limits the use of patterns. To address this issue, we propose an approach for rigorously specifying the proble...
