This article is about an intelligent system to support ideas management as a result of a multi-agent system used in a distributed system with heterogeneous information as ideas and knowledge, after the results about an ontology to describe the meaning of these ideas. The intelligent system assists participants of the creativity workshop to manage their ideas and consequently proposing an ontology dedicated to ideas. During the creative workshop many creative activities and collaborative creative methods are used by roles immersed in this creativity workshop event where they share knowledge. The collaboration of these roles is physically distant, their interactions might be synchrony or asynchrony, and the information of the ideas are heterogeneous, so we can say that the process is distributed. Those ideas are writing in natural language by participants which have a role and the ideas are heterogeneous since some of them are described by schema, text or scenario of use. This paper presents first, our MAS and second our Ontology design.

Abstract-There are a great interest in developing and using creativity in our society. We observe that industry and educative centers organize creativity workshops in order to solve problems. Creativity workshops have primordial elements such as creative solvers, creative supporters, and some activities to generate ideas. Their objectives are to apply creativity methods to generate ideas. The ideas generation process is a collaborative process among different activities (ideas creation, clustering, evaluation, etc.) and among participants which have different roles, point of view and experiences. We consider each activity as an organization where participants work together to achieve a common goal which is the idea generation. We propose in this paper to use an organizational approach to model the idea management process from the interaction among the roles during all the creativity activities.
