Ontological Engineering
This event took place on Monday 19 January 2004 at 13:00
Dr Aldo Gangemi
The development of precise, easily sharable domain ontologies and the analysis of existing ones are known time-consuming activities in ontological engineering. The talk will introduce some principles to design "core" ontologies that catch the basic commitments in a domain of interest. These principles can be combined into "ontology design patterns" in order to build an ontology from scratch, and to analyse or to integrate existing ones. A design pattern is illustrated that builds upon DOLCE foundational ontology and some extensions that help representing contexts and situations. Applications in several domains (biomedical, legal, services, fishery, etc.) are sketched.

New Media Systems is...
Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.
Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.
Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
