13. Example A felon registration system

14. Example Step 1: Create or find a DO for a registration system specific to felons (DAML ontology library)

15. Example Step 2: Gather initial requirements e.g. Every felon needs a unique identifier Every felon needs to have a foto Etc…

16. Example Step 3: Map the requirements you created onto a DO

17. Example Step 4: Calculate the 4 quality measures Is it complete? Is it correct? Is it consistent? Is it ambiguous?

18. Example Step 5: When the measures are not sufficiently high Update the list of requirements DO says that each unique identifier is composed of two components State & number New Req: Every felon needs a state name Every felon needs a number

19. Example Step 6: Go back to step 2
