Building Ontologies for Reuse

Dies ist die aktuellste Version dieses Eintrags.

Kurzfassung

Reusability is a key advantage promised by ontologies. But in practice, the reuse is oftentimes impeded or even prevented by bad ontology designs. In this case study, we report on experiences when trying to utilize existing ontologies for measurement units in a scientific data management system. For this well defined domain there is a wide range of ontologies and modeling approaches available. However, the models lend themselves differently to reuse. We want to draw the attention of ontology engineers to encountered examples of good and bad design decisions, so they can be considered in future developments.
