Abstract

The field of conceptual modeling continues to evolve and be applied to important modeling problems in many domains. With a goal of articulating the breadth and depth of the field, our initial work focused on the many implicit and explicit definitions of conceptual modeling, resulting in the Characterizing Conceptual Modeling (CCM) framework. In this paper, we focus on conceptual modeling research, presenting a Characterizing Conceptual Model Research (CCMR) framework and a series of evaluations to assess the coverage and usability of CCMR, the utility and independence of the individual fields in the framework, and likelihood of consistent use.

Fußnoten
1
As examples of philosophical grounding, Wand and Weber take an ontological perspective to understanding information systems from a conceptual modeling perspective [44]. Guizzardi provides another kind of ontological foundation for conceptual models [11]. Guarino has long argued for the role of ontologies in conceptual modeling [10].
