At various times we have suggested that specific user
problems and solution scenarios are required to focus efforts such as semantic
core, OsEra and ONTAC. This is one proposed problem and scenario.
These use case scenarios are intended to define an approach to solving
a common problem, adaptation of interfaces and information using ontological
methods and a set of capabilities to make use of those methods. This is
intended as requirements input to the various communities ad projects we are
and would like to be involved in to create such capabilities.
This scenario is based around the common and prevalent problem of
adaptation of interfaces and information between software systems in support of
related human processes dependent on those systems.
These scenarios are intended to be part of a set of such scenarios that
together define the purpose, scope and requirements for proposed and realized capabilities.
These capabilities are expected to include;
- Upper, reference and
meta Ontologies
- Model Driven
Architecture
- Software designed to
support the scenario and make use of these Ontologies to enable interface
and information adaptation
- Supporting processes
and infrastructure
The draft write-up of this problem and scenario can be found
at: http://www.semanticcore.org/requirements/InterfaceAdaptation.pdf
We invite comment, participation and are interested in participating
in efforts to solve such problems.
