Semantic Web Dog Food

Presented at: 6th International and 2nd Asian Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2007+ASWC2007)

Design patterns are widely-used software engineering abstractions which define guidelines for modeling common application scenarios. Ontology design patterns are the extension of software patterns for knowledge acquisition in the Semantic Web. In this work we present a design pattern for representing relevance depending on context in OWL ontologies, i.e. to assert which knowledge from the domain ought to be considered in a given scenario. Besides the formal semantics and the features of the pattern, we describe a reasoning procedure to extract relevant knowledge in the resulting ontology and a plug-in for Protégé which assists pattern use.

An Ontology Design Pattern for Representing Relevance in OWL was presented at this event.
