Tools and methods for ontology engineering are yet to mature as a discipline. There is no singular reference or unified approach. From the experience of developing Software Engineering ontology for semantic-enabled software engineering environment project, a Unified Process for ontology engineering is proposed. The proposal combines relevant techniques from two conventional methodologies and structures them in a process framework. The ontology process structure is adapted from Unified Process of Software Engineering and it imbibes standards like Unified Modeling Language and Ontology Development Model. The unified ontology process is illustrated by applying it to develop CMMI ontology in SeSEE context.

Abstract


Tools and methods for ontology engineering are yet to mature as a discipline. There is no singular reference or unified approach. From the experience of developing Software Engineering ontology for semantic-enabled software engineering environment project, a Unified Process for ontology engineering is proposed. The proposal combines relevant techniques from two conventional methodologies and structures them in a process framework. The ontology process structure is adapted from Unified Process of Software Engineering and it imbibes standards like Unified Modeling Language and Ontology Development Model. The unified ontology process is illustrated by applying it to develop CMMI ontology in SeSEE context.
