Paper Abstract:
|
This paper presents a proposal for a doctoral thesis regarding the development of an ontology engineering methodology especially dedicated for domain-experts in public administration. Numerous existing initiatives already show the enormous potential of Semantic Web technologies concerning transparency and citizen orientation of public administration agencies. In order to reach the next step of matureness of such semantically enriched E-Government applications there arises the need for a well-defined ontology engineering process, which should be tackled by this thesis. Although there already exist a number of ontology engineering methodologies in general the decentralized nature of the public sector in Europe with its diversity in local laws and regulations is hardly any considered. Emphasizing investigations towards human-centered computing and natural language processing should empower domain-experts to autonomously develop most parts of relevant ontologies. The resulting methodology will be a crucial success factor towards the goal of the deployment of ontology-driven E-Government applications on a large-scale. |
