Abstract

This paper describes an ontology-driven framework for process-oriented applications. The research described in this paper is motivated by the lack of information sharing mechanisms at the semantic level among process-oriented applications. Our approach addresses this problem through the determination of inter-application information flow requirements via an analysis of (i) application method ontologies and (ii) application software tool ontologies. The tool describes the overall ontology driven approach and the inter-method ontology mappings that drive the inter-tool information flow requirements. An example information integration scenario is outlined in order to illustrate the practical application of our approach. Lastly, we summarize the research and outline the benefits.
