Modelling Design of OIS Ontology

Abstract

This chapter presents the development of OIS ontology and the main elements that formalised in OWL-DL. The OIS ontology followed Methontology as a general framework of methodology. The main result will be introduced, namely, the modelling design of OIS ontology which follows the description of the activities involved in designing the OIS ontology model. The OIS ontology model identifies the terms and definitions in the IS domain. Also, designing the ontocop system and how it can be a useful platform for supporting and assessing the OIS ontology. It starts by introducing OIS designing methodology. At the end of this chapter we will discuss how this tool will help to develop the OIS ontology to be modelled in a comprehensive and consistent manner.
