An approach to ontology-aided performance engineering through NFR framework

Pere P. Sancho, Carlos Juiz, Ramón Puigjaner, Lawrence Chung, Nary Subramanian · 2007

In this article we intend to make an attempt to formalize the Software Performance Engineering Body of Knowledge (SPEBoK) by means of the formal semantics of an ontology written in OWL. We do not claim that our SPEBoK is complete nor the information contained correct. Rather we propose the structure of an ontological database to contain it. This structure allows the Performance Engineering issues to be related among themselves and even to other non-functional requirements with which they may interact. Our work uses the NFR Framework.
