Ломов Павел Андреевич · Ontology of Designing · 2015
Article is devoted to a problem of development and use of the ontologies of information systems within integrated knowledge space. The main objective in that case to overcome the semantic heterogeneity of ontologies that as a result will ensure semantic interoperability of the information systems based on them. An application of ontology design patterns during “life cycle” of such ontologies is proposed as a solution. The concept of an ontology design pattern, and also different types of patterns and their examples is presented. The main advantages of patterns application in such ontology handling scenarios as development of ontologies, their visualization for transmission of ontological knowledge to users, execution of queries to ontologies are given. In addition, the main problems arising from the use of ontologies based on patterns are considered.
