A Comprehensive Guideline for Building a Domain Ontology from Scratch

, and . Proceedings of International Conference on Knowledge Management (I-KNOW'04), Graz, Austria, (2004)

Abstract

Conceptual analysis and knowledge representation often require to develop an ontological support. The activity of developing a domain ontology is therefore one of the fundamental steps to be carried out when developing a shared model of the knowl- edge possessed by an organization, and consequently, one of the pilasters of knowledge management. It is clear, however, that this activity, as well as all other engineering activities, is constrained to be methodologically coherent in its phases, because the control over correctness of the development method is the only possible way to keep events of such an activity on its own track. Though it would seem attractive to deploy software applications which provide automation to the development of such models, the results of automatic ontology tools in the real practice of knowledge management are definitely disappointing.
