We had, today (Thursday 10-May-2007), a wonderful session for
the 7th episode of the Ontolog mini-series on "Database and
Ontology." Dr. Matthew West (Shell International Petroleum
Company), again, presided over the session with invited speaker,
Professor Tatiana Malyuta from the New York City College of
Technology, who presented her talk on "Interaction of Ontology
and Database in the Information System." (01)
Thank you, Professor Malyuta, for providing us a perspective on
ontologies from the vantage point of a database person. Our
appreciations to Dr. Matthew West, again, for championing this
mini-series; and, as always, thanks to all the participants for
joining us at the session. (02)
Proceedings of the session are captured on our wiki page, at:

In particular, full audio recording of the session is now
available - see:

... Professor Tatiana Malyuta's contribution in the proceedings
today is adding another important piece in the body of knowledge
on ontology and ontological engineering that our community is
building together. Thanks again! (05)
Best regards. =ppy (06)

>
> *Abstract*: (by Tatiana Malyuta)
>
> The presentation discusses some issues on the interaction of

>
> * Distribution of "responsibilities" between Ontology and
> Database:
>
> o what are the role and place of Ontology in IS,
>
> o how much semantics to leave within the database, and
>
> o how to integrate the Database semantics with Ontology.
>
> * Symbiosis of Ontology and Database:
>
> o during the IS life-cycle,
>
> o how changes and growth of Database will affect Ontology,
>
> o how evolution of Ontology will be reflected in Database,
>
> o and how to support this relationship and benefit from it.
>
> * Using Ontology for efficient data utilization in general
> and data integration in particular.
>
> * Using Ontology for support of Human-Computer Interfaces.
>
> The discussion will relate to previous talks on this
> mini-series about importance and benefits of ontology in IS,
> using ontology in database design, communicating to the
> database from ontology, and improving quality of data with
> the help of ontology.
