Modeling Domain Variability in Requirements Engineering with Contexts
Various characteristics of the problem domain define the context in which the system is to operate and thus impact...
Information Networking Model
Real world objects are essentially networked through various natural and complex relationships with each other. Existing data models such...
Towards an Ontological Modeling with Dependent Types: Application to Part-Whole Relations
Generally, mereological relations are modeled using fragments of first-order logic(FOL) and difficulties arise when meta-reasoning is done over their...
Multi-level Conceptual Modeling and OWL
Ontological metamodeling or multilevel-modeling refers to describing complex domains at multiple levels of abstraction, especially in domains where the...
A Semantic Approach to Describe Geospatial Resources

An Ontology-Based Framework for Geographic Data Integration
Ontologies have been extensively used to model domain-specific knowledge. Recent research has applied ontologies to enhance the discovery and...
Completeness in Databases with Maybe-Tuples
Some data models use so-called maybe tuples to express the uncertainty, whether or not a tuple belongs to a...
Modeling, Measuring and Monitoring the Quality of Information
Semantic properties that reflect quality criteria can be modeled by integrity constraints. Violated instances of constraints may serve as...
Evaluating the Functionality of Conceptual Models
Conceptual models serve as the blueprints of information systems and their quality plays decisive role in the success of...
