Hai Ying Dong, Farookh Khadeer Hussain, Elizabeth Chang · 2007
Along with the evolution of digital ecosystem, in regards to its definition, two different theories have emerged, respectively from Soluta.net and from digital ecosystem and Business Intelligence Institute. This is paper explains the differences between the two theories and more importantly proposes a ontology-based conceptual representation for the concept of digital ecosystem with the purpose of helping researchers in the field to better understand the notion of digital ecosystem. In addition, we will introduce a simple ontology notation system, as the basis of our ontology model.
