2. Pattern-based design aka eXtreme Design (XD)
Pattern-based ontology design is the activity of searching, selecting, and composing different patterns
Logical, Reasoning, Architectural, Presentation, Correspondence, Content
Common framework to understand modeling choices (the “solution space”) wrt task- and domain-oriented requirements (the “problem space”)
is the place that has started collecting ODPs

3. XD tool: GUI overview

4. Browse ODP repository

5. 6. Match the CQ to GUC

6. 7. Select the Content ODP to reuse

7. 8. Reuse and integrate the patterns

15. Hands-on Experience the NeOn Toolkit and its plugin:
eXtreme Design (XD) plugin
An exercise on pattern-based design (XD)
Read requirements (competency questions)
Match requirements to Content ODP general use cases (XD plugin and odp repository)
Select Content ODPs (XD plugin and ODP repository)
Specialize Content ODPs (XD plugin)
Compose Content ODPs (MC plugin)
Analyze ontology

16. The eXtreme Design plugin

18. Browsing the odp repository

20. Matching between requirement and ODP and ODP selection

22. Specialization Wizard

31. Annotation

39. Pattern composition Are there disjoint classes?
Are there equivalent classes?
Are there named relations involving (domain, range, restrictions) entities from the two (or more) patterns?
Are there incompatibilities to be resolved? …

43. How to use CPs for ontology design
Analyze the competency question
Detect the modeling issues
Match them to the CPs

44. Imagine we have to model the following
Arnold Schwarzenegger is Shylock in the play of "Merchant of Venice”, that is given at the theater “Roma” during September and October 2009

45. What we mean by matching cqs to CPs
What do we mean by matching a cq to CPs?
To compare the local cqs to the cqs covered by a CP in order to evaluate the CP suitability for solving the local problems
Ongoing work on automatic support for CP selection starting from local cqs
parsing of requirements and extraction of cqs
formalization of cqs
NLP support to match cqs terminology to CP lexicalizations
case-based reasoning
ontology matching
The XD tool 45
