A domain ontology building process based on principles of social web
Habib-Ellah Guergour, Zizette Boufaïda · 2012
In this paper, we present a domain ontology building process based on principles of social web. The proposed process takes into account the deficiencies that have marked the development of ontologies, mainly those related to the negligence of user, the sustainability of knowledge and the problem of consensus among different users. Our focus concentrates on introducing users in the development process in order to address these problems. We model this initiative by the principles of social web and this by exploiting, in particular, wikis and content sharing to ensure sustainability, availability and sharing of knowledge between different collaborators, and the use of tags and folksonomies to converge to a consensus vocabulary.
