Abstract

Despite active work during the past ten years, Ontology Engineering still lacks standard construction methodologies. The few existing methodologies do not include risk management to predict and control the risks that emerge from the many constraints involved in the construction process. Risk management techniques can smooth the problems faced in these complex construction processes. In this paper, an ontology construction process is described, to which a risk analysis process was adapted. These results represent a step to help newcomers in ontology engineering, pinpointing common risks, and their respective triggering events and effects.
