Abstract

Engineering development activities rely on computer-based models, which enclose technical data issued from different sources. In this heterogeneous context, retrieving, re-using and merging information is a challenge. We propose to annotate engineering models with concepts of domain ontologies, which provide data with explicit semantics. The semantic annotation makes it possible to formulate queries using the semantic concepts that are significant to the domain of the engineers. This work is inspired from a petroleum engineering case study and we validate our approach by presenting an implementation of this case study.
