Re: [ontolog-forum] Preferred Ontology Engineering Methodology?

[Biswanath Dutta <bisu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Colleague,
        May be you would be interested to look into [1]. A set of guiding principles and steps for ontology building are shown in this paper. Note that although the article shows examples from geo-spatial domain, overall approach is general and can be applied in any domain ontology development.

With regards,
Biswanath

These are usually some iterative but highly effective, practical methodologies.
We know them as Agile, XP, etc., (although I often find that it is
good to have moderation with ultra loose XP style)

Is there such a thing in ontology engineering?

What is the methodology that you would recommend for
smallish, small team ontology engineering?

What are your preferred ontology engineering methodologies in general?
