Ontology is the core component in semantic Web applications. The employment of an ontology building method affects the quality of ontology and the applicability of ontology language. A weighted evaluation approach for ontology building guidelines is presented in this paper. The evaluation criteria are based on an existing classification scheme of a semiotic framework for evaluating the quality of conceptual models. A sample of Web-based ontology building method guidelines is evaluated in general and experimented with when using data from a case study in particular. Directions for further refinement of ontology building methods are discussed.Read the full paper here: https://www.emmsad.org/archive/2005
