Now, for this Thursday's session ... (025)
= Ontology-based Standards miniseries session-4 - Thu 2013-10-10 = (026)
Session Co-chairs:
Mr. Peter Yim (Ontolog; CIM3) & Dr. Ram Sriram* (NIST) (027)
Topic: The Case for a "Quantities and Units of Measure" Ontology Standard (028)
== Abstract == (029)
This is a continuation of the Ontology-based Standards mini-series that got
started in late 2012. Since we have already had two content sessions and a
planning session, this session is labeled as "session-4". That (3rd)
brainstorm/planning session resulted in a program of 8 topics which we will
be covering partly during the rest of 2013, and partly in 2014. (030)
Among one of the initiatives that spun off from OntologySummit2009:
"Toward Ontology-based Standards" was the effort to work towards a
"Quantities and Units of Measure" Ontology Standard ("QUOMOS"). A rather
thorough survey of the landscape was done by the Ontolog Forum members, who
then progressed the work to a standards development effort under the
auspices of the OASIS QUOMOS TC. (031)
In parallel, various similar efforts were also active - notably the NASA
QUDT (Quantities, Units, Dimensions, and Data Types) Handbook and Ontologies
that came out earlier this year. For this session we have invited Mr. Ralph
Hodgson, who led the development of this NASA/QUDT work, to give a brief
introduction to this QUDT work. (032)
On our panel today, we have invited various User-domain Standards Developers
(users of QUOMOS), as well as key members of the QUOMOS team (developers of
QUOMOS) to share with us their perspectives. After the QUDT presentation,
our other panelists will give short briefings to help kick-start the
conversation. An open discussion will ensue, which will revolving around: (033)
I. given what (standards works) are already available[1], do we still see
the need for a cross-domain, International Quantity and Units of Measure
Ontology Standard (like what the OASIS QUOMOS TC has chartered[3]), and (034)
II. if so, what could/should that QUOMOS ontology standard deliver, to best
meet user needs and expectations? (035)
What we really hope to gain out of today's session, is a dialog between the
users and developers of the QUOMOS standard ontology, so that the work
products from this effort will not be something that sits on the shelf, but
something that meet the needs and expectations of its users. (036)
