The use of a domain ontology and the active collaboration between analysts and end-users are among solutions aiming to the production of an Information System compliant with end-users' expectations. Generally, a domain ontology is used to produce only the database conceptual schema, while other diagrams are designed to represent others aspects of the domain. In order to produce a fully operational Information System, we propose to enrich a domain ontology by behavioral properties deduced from the User Requirements, expressed by the input and output data necessary to the realization of the end-users' business tasks. This approach is implemented by the ISIS (Information System Initial Specification) system. The behavioral properties make it possible to deduce which concepts must be represented by objects, literals or indexes in the generated Information System, where the Graphical User Interface enables the users to validate the expressed needs and refine them if necessary.
