Abstract-Ontologies are used for enhancement of explicit semantic information of data sources. We can establish a consensus between communities and resolve semantic heterogeneity conflicts between data sources through ontology. The reason ontologies are becoming so popular is in large part due to what they promise: a shared and common understanding of some domain that can be communicated between people and application systems. The creation of the ontology is a major issue in use of ontology. In order to create an ontology we need to extract all detailed specifications from the domain conceptualization, modeling these specifications based on a data model and formalizing these based on a formal language. Most ontologies are related to a specific domain area (such as university, music, movie, and so on) and thhee use of a particular vocabulary related to the domain area. We call these ontologies as domain-based ontology. In this paper we introduce a model for representing of domain-based ontologies. Subsequently we build an University ontology as a domainbased ontology, based on our proposed model. Finally we propose domain-based ontology architecture as an efficient approach in ontology-based data integration. IndexTerms-Domain-based ontology, ontology representation model, domain-based ontology architecture.

“…In 1990, Lenat and Guha published the general steps [52] and some interesting points about the Cyc development. Some years later, in 1995, on the basis of the experience gathered in developing the Enterprise Ontology [70] and the TOVE (TOronto Virtual Enterprise) project ontology [33] (both in the domain of enterprise modelling), the first guidelines were proposed and later refined in [67,68]. At the 12th European Conference for Artificial Intelligence (ECAIÕ96), Bernaras et al [4] presented a method used to build an ontology in the domain of electrical networks as part of the Esprit KACTUS [61] project.…”

“…The Uschold and King's method [70] proposes four activities: (1) to identify the purpose of the ontology, (2) to build it, (3) to evaluate it, and (4) to document it. During the building activity, the authors propose capturing knowledge, coding it and integrating other ontologies inside the current one.…”

In this paper we review and compare the main methodologies, tools and languages for building ontologies that have been reported in the literature, as well as the main relationships among them. Ontology technology is nowadays mature enough: many methodologies, tools and languages are already available. The future work in this field should be driven towards the creation of a common integrated workbench for ontology developers to facilitate ontology development, exchange, evaluation, evolution and management, to provide methodological support for these tasks, and translations to and from different ontology languages. This workbench should not be created from scratch, but instead integrating the technology components that are currently available.

Abstract.Ontologies are the backbone of the Semantic Web, a semantic-aware version of the World Wide Web. To the end of making available large-scale, high quality domain ontologies, effective and usable methodologies are needed to facilitate the process of Ontology Building. Many of the methods proposed so far only partly refer to well-known and widely used standards from other areas, like software engineering and knowledge representation. In this paper we present UPON, a methodology for ontology building derived from the Unified Software Development Process. A comparative evaluation with other methodologies, as well as the results of its adoption in the context of the Athena Integrated Project, are also discussed.
