Ontology-based application for domain rules development
Abstract
While there is a great interest in rule-based systems and their development, none of the proposed languages or methods has been accepted as a standard technology yet. Nowadays tools used in process of information systems (IS) development are not extended and adapted enough for modelling and implementation of application domain rules. A particular contingent of researchers proposes using of ontology for development of intelligent IS, since ontology is suitable to represent application domain knowledge. We are challenged in using ontology for the development of application domain rules. In this paper we present a method for ontology axioms transformation to application domain rules and describe how ontology-based development of application domain rules is integrated through IS development life cycle.
