An Approach to Ontology Integration for Ontology Reuse
2016 IEEE 17th International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration (IRI), 2016In the last years, the large availability of data and schema models formalized through different languages has demanded effective and efficient methodologies to reuse such models. One of the most challenging problem consists in integrating different models in a global conceptualization of a specific knowledge or application domain.

Semantic annotation and information extraction are of paramount importance in the field of unstructured information management. Although several sophisticated and indeed complex approaches were proposed, they still have many limitations. In this paper we present a novel ontological paradigm called Description Ontology in which objects and classes ...

Philosophy, taken from the point of view of its problems and methods, is the collection of distinct philosophical disciplines. In fact, metaphilosophical analysis leads to rather troublesome questions: Are philosophical disciplines methodologically and/or essentially related and connected? Are particular philosophical disciplines scientific?

Although the notions of function and functionality seem to be necessary tools – along with notionslike object, event and property – for making sense of the outside world, our understanding of functionsis still poor and fragmented. Serious theoretical work on functions and functionalities started in philos-ophy of science only about 40 years ago (see ...

The notion of state is ubiquitous in analysis of computational systems. State introduces intensional content into a dynamical process which cannot be directly observed from outside. Without a state, the process is defined purely by its inputoutput behaviour, and is thus expected to run itself out toward a final result, ie, compute some function.

Rapid advances in information technologies continue to drive a flood of data and analysis techniques in ecological and environmental sciences. Using these resources more effectively and taking advantage of associated cross-disciplinary research opportunities poses a major challenge to both scientists and information technologists.

According to Michel Foucault, the emergence of a new science of life, biology, was one of the axes of the scientific revolution. Before moving in the 1970s to analyse biopower and biopolitics as central categories of modernity, in The Order of Things: An Archaeology of the Human Sciences, Foucault wrote about life in terms of the «secret force» that ...

In this paper, we describe the concept of ontological design. We show how ontologies can be used as cognitive maps of complex, ill-structured, plastic problems. They can be used to concisely encapsulate the core logic of a problem. From it one can also derive a closed set of a very large number of natural language descriptions of a problem.

Ontology or formal ontology? Which word is correct? The aim of this article is to introduce correct terms and explain their basis. Ontology describes a particular area of interest (domain) in a formal way - defines the classes of objects that are in that area, and relationships that may exist between them.
