Ontology Engineering: a survey and a return on experience.
Fabien Gandon, Research Report of INRIA, RR4396, France - March 2002http://www.inria.fr/rrrt/rr-4396.html
Abstract: Ontology is a new object of IA that recently came to maturity and a powerful conceptual tool of Knowledge Modeling. It provides a coherent base to build on, and a shared reference to align with, in the form of a consensual conceptual vocabulary, on which one can build descriptions and communication acts. This report presents the object that is called "an ontology" and a state of the art of engineering techniques for ontologies. Then it describes a project for which we developed an ontology and used it to improve knowledge management. Finally it describes the design process and discuss the resulting ontology.
Keywords: ontology, knowledge engineering, semantic information search
