&lt;br /&gt;
This is our 6th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by [[NIST]], [[Ontolog]], [[NCOR]], [[NCBO]], [[IAOA]] &amp;amp; [[NCO_NITRD]]. The theme adopted for this Ontology Summit is: &amp;quot;Making the Case for Ontology.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This year's Ontology Summit seeks to address the need to provide concrete evidence of successful deployment of ontologies by examining several application domains for such examples, and in better articulating where different &amp;quot;strengths&amp;quot; of ontological representation are best applied. To support that, the summit also aims to classify the categories of applications where ontology has been, and could be, successfully applied; to identify distinct types of metrics that might be used in evaluating the return on investment in an ontology application (cost, capability, performance, etc.); to lay out some strategies for articulating a case for ontological applications; and to identify remaining challenges and roadblocks to a wider deployment of such applications that represent promising application areas and research challenges for the future. The findings of the summit will be documented in the form of a communiqu&amp;amp;eacute; intended for public consumption. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Panel Session today is organized by our Track-4 co-champions, and will be featuring a range of panelists who will tell us the strategic approach they take when making their case and the issues they find as they prosecute the case. &lt;br /&gt;

[[FrankOlken|Frank Olken]]: I tried to call in with Google voip, and was told the conference calling number was not &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a legal phone number - so I am using my cell phone. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Frank: It appears that this conference calling service is blocked by some (Google &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
included). I had the same issue in the past, and now just use my Vonage account for this call. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Byron: Did you need a question answered? We could try via chat. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ByronDavies: Moderator, please remove me from the queue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[ToddSchneider|Todd Schneider]]: Matthew, could you repeat the two uses of ontologies? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Matthew West: @Todd - Use 1 is in providing information through reasoning. Use 2 is in supporting &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
information systems through models and Master Data Mgt and data quality analysis. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Norman: I didn't catch the third ingredient for a successful venture. I got: Stellar &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
team; great market concept. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Matthew West: @steve 3rd is Disruptive Technology Solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: Sorry I got here late, unavoidable. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: I think the point that both Denise and Chris have made is that we should focus on solving &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a use-case problem rather than making a case for ontology per se. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: In fact how we solve their problems may require that we not make a point of using &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
semantics or ontology. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Rex: Thus, our application framework should be very useful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: @Steve: right! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: @Steve: How do we incorporate the almost unanimous conclusions of this session into &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
application framework, a la siri? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: We have the chicken and egg catch 22 situation where we need the context but to get the &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
context we need the context to make the case.? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Rex: I'd say: 1. Identify the audience. 2. Prepare the pitch for that audience. Siri's &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
audience was the VC community as far as I can tell. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: I'm hoping the Application Framework will list each application type, each audience type, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and each value metric. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: Can we identify a bunch of problems (use-cases) we can solve? and then use that to &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
develop the application framework? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Rex: That was one of the drivers behind the Use Case track - to find actual use cases and &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
find out what worked when making the case. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[ToddSchneider|Todd Schneider]]: The particular stake holders will also impact which metrics are of interest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: I agree &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: @Steve: then I think Todd's idea of a matrix is a good idea to produce a set of &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
solutions, audiences, money-trail, etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: And, of course, metrics! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Rex: Yes. I think it's a 3D cube: Application type; Audience type; Value metric &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[LeoObrst|Leo Obrst]]: I agree with Peter, and with Chris, because it is a matter of both accuracy and a matter &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
of trust. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PavithraKenjige|Pavithra Kenjige]]: @Peter - on slide 4, it says CIO and System architects... It is the job of the &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
enterprise architects to create an Ontology for the organizations for it to be useful for &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
organizational wide interoperability. System Architects have narrower responsibilities limited to &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
systems that they are responsible for.. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: (added this response subsequently) @PavithraKenjige - I was using the term &amp;quot;system&amp;quot; in a &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
very broad sense - including that of enterprise systems, human systems, etc., and not just tools &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
systems or (computer-based) application systems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PavithraKenjige|Pavithra Kenjige]]: Application Architecture, would deal with application layer, Ontology should be &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
addressed when addressing information/ semantics of the information that application architecture &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
has to store or manipulate. For example, in a three tier architecture, or service oriented software &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
or application architecture, they have to work with the information they have to work with.. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PhilMurray|Phil Murray]]: Re: &amp;quot;Ontologies are overrated.&amp;quot; Comparable to response to tech writer presenting a draft &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
to a manager for review: &amp;quot;I've done a little wordsmithing myself.&amp;quot; To some people, Ontology &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
engineering looks like something very simple made more difficult and more expensive ... and not at &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
all providing something the rest of us can't do. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[MikeBennett|Mike Bennett]]: Is one issue the &amp;quot;Prototype&amp;quot; problem you also see with software: people form a mental &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
picture of the thing they saw, and picture this whenever they hear the word &amp;quot;ontology&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[TerryLongstreth|Terry Longstreth]]: @Peter - I like your observation that &amp;quot;ontology&amp;quot; covers a range of strategic &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
concepts, from Controlled Vocabularies to Fully axiomatized logical frameworks (I hope I've &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
paraphrased that accurately). Do we need an enumeration of that spectrum, with target markets for &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the individual strategies? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[ToddSchneider|Todd Schneider]]: Have to go. Thank to all the speakers. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: @TerryLongstreth - I believe we addressed this (&amp;quot;What is an Ontology&amp;quot;) back in 2007 - see: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ontology Summit 2007 - Ontology, Taxonomy, Folksonomy: Understanding the Distinctions - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Terry: That was the subject of our 2007 Ontology Summit. See &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[TerryLongstreth|Terry Longstreth]]: @Peter - I'm aware, but my point is that all of these are being called ontologies, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
without a clear definition of how they should relate to each other. Was that discussed in 2007? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: @Terry - in particular - the [[LeoObrst|Leo Obrst]] + [[MichaelGruninger|Michael Gr&amp;amp;uuml;ninger]] &amp;quot;Ontology Framework&amp;quot; presentation &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
is enlightening - see: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_Framework_Session#nid10HH &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: @Terry - absolutely! hopefully, at this Summit (2011), we will take that one step forward &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and associate the &amp;quot;right&amp;quot; type of ontology to specific business problems &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: My line dropped as well, just as I was about to ask for input into a matrix that Todd and &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I will put together, but I'd like to see a set of use-cases with specific problems we can solve so &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
we can identify the kind of application framework that will be needed and what metrics we can use to &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
measure how effectively we solve those problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[AnneHunt|Anne Hunt]]: Sorry, I could only stay until 11. Good conversation--see you next time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nicola Guarino: Have to go. Great session! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: Thanks, Anne ... thanks, Nicola ... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Rex: Be sure to coordinate with the Track 1 team that is tasked with creating the &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Application Framework. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: @Steve: we should do that tomorrow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[SteveRay|Steve Ray]]: @Rex: Indeed. And this is the focus of next Thursday's session: Integrating the Framework, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the Use cases, and the value metrics. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: @Peter: Exactly! We can focus on the solution to problems, and not worry about telling &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
everyone how we solve it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: [[MatthewWest|Matthew West]] suggested: &amp;quot;Ontology inside!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: Ontology Onboard! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[MikeBennett|Mike Bennett]]: Ontology enabled? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PavithraKenjige|Pavithra Kenjige]]: Problem with selling the concept of Ontology is - we treat it as Semantic &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
technology dependent like RDF and Owl! I wonder it is necessary to limit it that way? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PhilMurray|Phil Murray]]: @Leo Obrst (paraphrased): &amp;quot;People will reinvent what ontologies do while deprecating &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ontology engineering.&amp;quot; Absolutely true. So KR people need to be associated strongly with something &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that has high visibility and clearly understood impact. The attention to Watson could be a &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
springboard for that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[RexBrooks|Rex Brooks]]: @Leo: one thing we need to be careful about is using appropriate messages per audience. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When speaking to technicians, we can say things we shouldn't attempt with a non-technical, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
managerial or venture capitalist audience. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PhilMurray|Phil Murray]]: Gotta go. And thanks, Peter, for fixing my access. Good discussion, all. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: Thank you for your participation and contribution, Phil ... bye &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[NormanWinarsky|Norman Winarsky]]: Have to go. Thanks so much for the great discussion. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[MatthewWest|Matthew West]]: Thank you very much Norman &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[MikeBennett|Mike Bennett]]: Some fantastic insights in today's session! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PavithraKenjige|Pavithra Kenjige]]: thank you &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]]: Great session ... thank you all! &lt;br /&gt;
