Opis

Ontology modeling lacks standard methodology and sufficient literatures.There are very few books available in the market place that talks aboutontology modeling methodology and its application and almost none in thearea of product and process design. Manufacturing enterprises are competingin an environment, which requires the ability to rapidly design theirproducts and processes. This ability requires modeling methods to supportdesign team in providing design information. The objective of this book is toillustrate the ontology modeling methodology, called as the DomainKnowledge Acquisition Process (DKAP) methodology and its application inproduct and process design. It is a well structured generic methodology andcan be used to model any domain of interest. This book also presents adomain ontology model for generic product and process design that canserve as a source of design knowledge for enterprise engineering. A directbenefit of such ontology is the enhanced ability to perform product andprocess design. The goal of this book is to explain the ontology modelingtechniques to more or less anybody involve with the knowledge managementspecially ontology modelers/authors and collaborative design teams.
