OntologySummit2012: (Track-1&2) "Ontology for Big Systems and Systems Engineering" Community Input (337F)
Track Co-Champions: Dr. MatthewWest and Dr. HensonGraves (337G)
Mission Statement: (337H)
We aim to bring key challenges to light with large-scale systems and systems of systems for ontology and identify where solutions exist, where the problems require significant research, and where we can work towards solutions as part of this summit. The areas to be considered include: (3385)
- working with and integrating the results of models using multiple modeling languages, (3386)
- the systems lifecycle and the issues of sharing data within and between lifecycle stages, (3387)
- the difference between requirements and the delivered system, (3388)
- systems of systems vs systems, (3389)
- the nature of system components and the difference between these and the parts installed, (338A)
- the connections between system components and what they carry, (338B)
- the specific role of social, legal, and value-related aspects in systems architecture, modeling and design (339F)
- systems behaviour, (338C)
- federated systems both as a big system, and as a solution to some of the challenges, (338D)
- principles of how to construct good quality reusable models (ontologies), (338E)
- the management of ontologies of and for large systems and the challenges in developing and maintaining them. (338F)

Refinement of Threads we could follow during this summit: (345U)
[2012.02.02] ... Brought forward from the session-04 discussion: (3462)
ref. HensonGraves' "Triage" slides (345V)
identify thread champions too! (345W)
- #3 - Composite System Modeling - candidate champion: GiancarloGuizzardi (345X)
- #4 - System Descriptions For Different Uses, e.g., Requirements & Design (345Y)
- #5 - Success And Relevance Of Semantic Issues In Engineering - to be partially addressed by AmandaVizedom et al. in X-Track-A1 and also by SteveRay et al. in Track-4 (345Z)
- #6 - (in lieu of the Natural vs Artificial Systems discussion) discussion of rules of engagement where Systems and Ontology discussion would make sense, essentially where Systems can pick up Ontology (3460)
- #7 - Semantic Interoperability - candidate champion: RaviSharma (semantic mapping) with support from LeoObrst (3461)
- (349Z)
- Semantic Interoperability:These are in Addition to Triage slides fro Dr. Henson Graves that indicate direction for some of the answers inputs to Questions on SI -Semantic Interoperability (among other topics from community relating to this track): Where are we in defining Big Systems and Systems Engineering related or general Semantics? Are there formal definitions? What other attributes are required / involved beside Vocabularies, terms, data and information (sharing and Exchange), XML as transport or Exchange medium, XMI as model data exchange, when we talk of Semantic interoperability? Are there tools beyond Information Sharing and Exchange (e.g. NIEM and UCore) or Models (E-R, O-R or Metadata models) that we can leverage when determining SI For this thread we would hope to list summary: Where are we -Current literature survey and topics on SI, in Ontolog and other forums? What additional value is brought by ontology considerations when added to semantics? Topics - Etc…. more to come. {nid 349Y}---- (34A0)
