Summary

Existing mature ontology engineering approaches are based on some basic assumptions that are often neglected in practice.

Ontologies often need to be built in a decentralized way, ontologies must be given to a community in a way such that individuals have partial autonomy over them, ontologies have a life cycle that involves an iteration back and forth between construction/modification and use and ontologies should support the participation of non-expert users in ontology engineering processes.

While recently there have been some initial proposals to consider these issues, they lack the appropriate rigor of mature approaches. i.e. these recent proposals lack the appropriate depth of methodological description, which makes the methodology usable, and they lack a proof of concept by concrete cases studies. In this paper, we describe the DILIGENT methodology that takes decentralization, partial autonomy, iteration and non-expert builders into account and we demonstrate its proof-ofconcept in two real-world organizational case studies.

In our terminology, a methodology for an engineering artefact is a tested and validated process template abstracting over all possible successful engineering processes for engineering the artefact.

Maintenance is supported by later stages of DILIGENT.

With naive users this usually does not occur often.

Ideally the board should have access to all users’ ontologies. However, in some settings it may only have access to requests for changes.

In the revision stage.

Ideally one should be able to blacken out the ambiguous parts like in multilevel databases. This has not been transferred to OE yet.
