Whose “Fault” Is This? Untangling Domain Concepts in an Ontology of Resilient Computing

Whose “Fault” Is This? Untangling Domain Concepts in an Ontology of Resilient Computing
Whose “Fault” Is This? Untangling Domain Concepts in an Ontology of Resilient Computing
Certain ontology domain concepts are difficult to model due to the complexity of their definition, the number of roles that they fulfill or the different types of relationships they participate in. To assist ontologists in overcoming these challenges, a comparative analysis of two Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) has been carried out. A terminology is introduced that describes the role and certain reusability scenarios of domain concepts in the ODPs studied. These findings make explicit certain potentially implicit modeling decisions previously taken in the ontology modeling field. Our contribution is illustrated with a concrete example from an ontology of resilient computing that will benefit from the outcome of this study.

Abstract

Certain ontology domain concepts are difficult to model due to the complexity of their definition, the number of roles that they fulfill or the different types of relationships they participate in. To assist ontologists in overcoming these challenges, a comparative analysis of two Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) has been carried out. A terminology is introduced that describes the role and certain reusability scenarios of domain concepts in the ODPs studied. These findings make explicit certain potentially implicit modeling decisions previously taken in the ontology modeling field. Our contribution is illustrated with a concrete example from an ontology of resilient computing that will benefit from the outcome of this study.
