Abstract

The Web extends today's modelbases-an important DSS component-by enabling their sharing and reusing over the information network. A modelbase with a formal, precise, and expressive framework will enhance the interoperation and benefit machine-human as well as machine-machine interactions. Therefore, this paper proposes a Web-based-compatible framework for modelbases, namely ODDM. ''Model Ontology'' and ''Model Schema'' are main components of the framework. Both components seamlessly interoperate by means of OWL Declarative Description (ODD). The classification of existing modelbase frameworks is presented. Requirements for the framework are identified and the proposed framework's conformance to the requirements is also discussed.
