“…Additionally, recent work shows how enterprise ontologies can benefit from enterprise architecture and models (see sections 2.2 and 2.3). Utilizing an enterprise ontology in an ontology-based CBR approach can be regarded as a next logical step as suggested by Martin, Emmenegger, and Wilke (2013). Unfortunately, no significant attention has been paid in recent work in ontology-based CBR concerning the different viewpoints and concerns of the users.…”

“…Apart from that, it is serialised using the RDF 1.1 Turtle (W3C 2014b) format. Finally, ArchiMEO has been successfully applied in risk management (Emmenegger, Laurenzini, and Thönssen 2012), contract management (Thönssen and Lutz 2012) and case-based reasoning (Martin, Emmenegger, and Wilke 2013).…”

“…To overcome this issue, several approaches suggest the utilisation of ontologies (Díaz-Agudo and González-Calero 2000; Recio-Garía and Díaz-Agudo 2007; Gao and Deng 2010). To provide a CBR system with enterprise-specific knowledge, so-called enterprise ontologies can be used (Martin, Emmenegger, and Wilke 2013). But enterprise ontologies need to be created first, resulting in a knowledge bottleneck as well.…”

“…But enterprise ontologies need to be created first, resulting in a knowledge bottleneck as well. As a solution, Kang et al (2010); Hinkelmann, Merelli, and Thönssen (2010); Thönssen (2010) and Martin, Emmenegger, and Wilke (2013) suggest reusing enterprise architecture descriptions when formalising an enterprise ontology. Because an enterprise architecture is a description of an "enterprise's organisational structure, business processes, information systems, and infrastructure" (Lankhorst 2009, p. 3), it is an excellent source of enterprise-specific knowledge to describe cases.…”

The accessibility of project knowledge obtained from experiences is an important and crucial issue in enterprises. This information need about project knowledge can be different from one person to another depending on the different roles he or she has. Therefore, a new ontologybased case-based reasoning approach that utilises an enterprise ontology is introduced in this paper to improve the accessibility of this project knowledge. Utilising an enterprise ontology improves the case-based reasoning system through the systematic inclusion of enterprisespecific knowledge. This enterprise-specific knowledge is captured using the overall structure given by the enterprise ontology named ArchiMEO, which is a partial ontological realisation of the enterprise architecture framework ArchiMate. This ontological representation, containing historical cases and specific enterprise domain knowledge, is applied in a new ontology-based case-based reasoning approach. To support the different information needs of different stakeholders, this ontology-based case-based reasoning approach has been built in such a way that different views, viewpoints, concerns and stakeholders can be considered. This is realised using a case viewpoint model derived from the ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010 standard. The introduced approach was implemented as a demonstrator and evaluated using an application case that has been elicited from a business partner in the Swiss research project.
