You are cordially invited to join us at the next Ontolog Invited
Speaker session that is schedule for next Thursday,  February 5, 2009.    (04)

Joining us at the session will be Mr. Aldo Gangemi and Dr. Valentina
Presutti from the Semantic Technology Laboratory of the National
Research Council (CNR) of Italy in Rome. They will be presenting on
the topic of "Pattern-based Ontology Design."    (05)


Abstract:   ...  Ontologies are fundamental elements for making sense
and allowing reuse of the huge amount of structured data that is being
published on the (Semantic) Web. Designing good ontologies is
non-trivial, to say the least. In this session our presenters will
describe ontology design patterns, along with an associated method,
called eXtreme Design. They will show us why such a method can help
ease the ontology design task. They will also be talking about an
associated initiative, ontologydesignpatterns.org, a web portal based
on SemanticMediaWiki technology, aimed at collecting ontology design
patterns as well as good practices and good ontologies, and at
supporting their discussion, evaluation, and reuse. They will also
describe the certification procedure of ontologydesignpatterns.org,
which is performed by means of Evaluation WikiFlow, a
SemanticMediaWiki extension that they have developed for supporting
evaluation workflows.    (06)

As before, a Q&A and open discussion segment is planned for this
session, and will take place right after the speakers' presentations.    (07)
