About this title

Synopsis

This book explains in detail how to use standards like MDA and UML for ontology development. It provides the first detailed description of OMG’s upcoming ODM (Ontology Definition Metamodel) standard. This book fills a gap by covering the subject of MDA application for ontology development on the Semantic Web. The book is supported by a website showing many ontologies, UML and other MDA-based models, and the transformations between them. It is equally suited to those who merely want to be informed of the relevant technological landscape, to practitioners dealing with concrete problems, and to researchers seeking pointers to potentially fruitful areas of research. The writing is technical yet clear and accessible, and is illustrated throughout with useful and easily digestible examples.
