Draft Agenda, Thursday, July 19
8:00 Arrival
8:30 Discussion of challenges
What are the challenges to discuss?
Use of existing standards.
How to design IOF ontology by leveraging existing standards which may not be ontology?
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.
Ontology Merging: How do we resolve conflicts among ontologies within the IOF? (Introduced by Dimitris Kiritsis)
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
15:00 Roadmap (second round)
17:00 Close
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?
