This paper addresses the topic of defining a knowledge base system for representing and managing ontologies according to the WSMO conceptual model. We propose a software engineering approach to this problem, by implementing: (i) the relational model for ontologies that corresponds to the WSML representation of WSMO; (ii) the usage of a well known Web modeling language called WebML, extended by a set of new components for exploiting ontological contents in Web services and Web applications design; and (iii) a Web-based content management system for ontologies editing and reasoning, implemented using the abovementioned software engineering approach.

Abstract
This paper addresses the topic of defining a knowledge base system for representing and managing ontologies according to the WSMO conceptual model. We propose a software engineering approach to this problem, by implementing: (i) the relational model for ontologies that corresponds to the WSML representation of WSMO; (ii) the usage of a well known Web modeling language called WebML, extended by a set of new components for exploiting ontological contents in Web services and Web applications design; and (iii) a Web-based content management system for ontologies editing and reasoning, implemented using the abovementioned software engineering approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
