Abstract

Critical to the success of an enterprise is to not only remember and share information, but also to make sure it meets the required quality. We developed a method for adding information quality requirements to the ontological DEMO model of an enterprise, by first defining information products, second determine relevant quality characteristics from the ISO/IEC 25012:2008 Data Quality Model for Software product Quality Requirements and Evaluation standard, and third add these quality characteristics to the ontological model [1]. As a benefit we found that it not only offers a systematic way to determine the needed quality of information to support the business organization, it also reveals a way to model this need on an ontological level through the creation, remembering and recalling of new information and by the use of this new information in the action rules of new or existing actor roles. Further research is required to ascertain this is a good starting point for eliciting software requirements to support responsibilities regarding quality of information.
