We opted to follow Methontology [FernandezLopezM1997,1999] for the construction of the Ontology. Methontology proposes a step by step life cycle. There are 3 major steps in turn with some substeps:
- Specification
- Conceptualization
1. Build glossary terms
2. Build concept-classification trees
3. Build binary relations diagram
4. Build the concepts dictionary
5. Build the binary relations table
6. Build the instance-attribute-tables
7. Build the class-attribute-tables
8. Build the logical axioms tables
9. Build the constants tables
10. Build the formula tables
11. Build the attribute-classification tables
12. Build the instance tables
- Implementation
This component holds the information regarding the conceptual knowledge that we are currently building.
- **OntologyRequirementSpecification_0001.docx** - The ontology specification.
- **OntologyUseCaseScenarios.pptx** - Illustration of some use case scenarios
- **ListaDeTerminos_Merged_ExpertAndNLP_v2.xlsx** - A List of terms that resulted from the merging of two lists; one generated by the expert, and one generated by the use of NLP and then matched and merged. This will be used a a first round for the glossary.
