How to design IOF ontology by leveraging existing ontologies?

10:15 Break

10:30 Discussion of challenges (continued)

Ontology merging. Will diversity of ontologies in a particular area be allowed? (Introduced by Barry Smith)

Diversity of ontologies in IOF.

Dealing with diversity outside of IOF.

Best practices and software environments for collaborative distributed ontology development

IRI for the IOF

12:30 Lunch

13:30 Discussion of challenges (continued)

14:30 Break

Notes

Johan: 4D does not work with OWL DL. Is IOF tied to OWL DL?
Todd: IOF intends to use at least OWL and CL, and not necessary limit to these two.

Potential clusters of use cases

Maintenance planning (any industry specific?) (Melinda)

Possible ontology modules

Process plan/maintenance plan
Time
Units
Resource/Equipment/Asset
Topology/Geolocation
Production planning and scheduling of discrete manufacturing (Dusan, Peter, Walter)
Supply chain (Farhad Ameri)
Product/Process requirement
Organization/Agent
Could we agree on which module which group will focus on?
How do we deal with modules needed by a group that is to be produced by another group.
Could we agree on a common starting point for some of these modules?
