Question 2b Specific Community &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
or sub-community I am affiliated with:  advocate for the general public &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 2c Expertise Self Assessment - &lt;br /&gt;
With respect to the perspective you are representing and providing input from, I am a/an: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[  ]  1. informed layman&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[  ]  2. practitioner&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[  ]  3. expert&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[X]  4. other (please specify):  mix and match, depends on which aspect &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 3a Ontology Value - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;A systematic way of looking inside databases established or maintained by others. Instructions for looking.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 3b Ontology Issues - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Unfamiliarity with the terminology and what exists versus what we wish for.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lack of uniform locations of subject matter. Lack of assembly process to &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
overlay and compare large quantities of nearly similar structured &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
specifications from project to project&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 3c Ontology Problems - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lack of uniform locations of subject matter. Lack of assembly process to &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
systematically break information down to a correct solid foundation, then &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
rebuild from the ground up. Lack of a way to overlay and compare large &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
quantities of nearly similar structured specifications from project to project&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 3d Corresponding Solutions - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Develop uniform locations of subject matters. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Share properties and data descriptions based on their number, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
or address in mutual locations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Use more visual languages and symbols rather than terms.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 4aGlossary - &lt;br /&gt;
Ontology-related 'vocabulary' and representative 'artifact' from your constituency or community: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Term:  performance&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gloss:  requirement&lt;br /&gt;

Question 4a1 Called An Ontology - &lt;br /&gt;
On a scale of 1 to 5, (where 1 means totally unlikely and 5 means almost always), would the above term or artifact be referred to as an &amp;quot;ontology&amp;quot; in your community? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[X]  1. 1 - totally unlikely&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[  ]  2. 2 - rarely&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[  ]  4. 4 - quite often&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[  ]  5. 5 - almost always &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 4a2 Additional Remarks - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Specifying by performance requirements was developed in California &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
in the 70s because the state needed A LOT of schools to be built &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
quickly and cheaply. The government defined what they required by &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a school, local architects and contractors were hired and schools &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
were built in every shape, size, color you can imagine. We need &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
performance requirements for the semantic web.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 4bGlossary - &lt;br /&gt;

Question 4b2 Additional Remarks - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Assembly tools as envisioned do not currently exist.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Question 4c2 Additional Remarks - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Desire an editing process to be defined step by step when confronted &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
with new information. See data as a large grid or table too large &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
to search in the background and an ontology as a semi-automated &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
editor assistant to eliminate what does not belong, then &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
assemble into a picture.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 4dGlossary - &lt;br /&gt;

[  ]  5. 5 - almost always &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Question 4d2 Additional Remarks - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;BIM is concerned with spaces, relationships and properties. The closest &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
we come to words is keynotes and CSI section numbers. Also, external &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
references serve a critical role. Perhaps this may be like importing &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
lower and upper level ontologies.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;

Question 4f2 Additional Remarks - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We call this a project delivery method. Others include negotiated &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
contracts, gross maximum price (GMP, most common) and others. There is &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
no standardized way of contracting someone to come in and create &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
an ontology for your data.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;quot;Need to show project architects and data architects where they need &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
to make choices and fill in the blanks versus assemblies and components &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
they should leave alone because someone found out the hard way that &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
these work together.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;

Question 5 Confirm Participation - where, &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
the workshops and the written communique process), and &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a 'co-sponsor' is an organization who is providing technical or funding support (e.g. supporting &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
member(s) of its technical staff to participate as a 'convener'), and/or endorsing the objective &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
of this [[OntologySummit2007|Ontology Summit 2007]], &lt;br /&gt;

review when it is ready. I will confirm my endorsement after the review.&lt;br /&gt;

Ontologies are standard methods for the interpretation of information. An ontology covers presentation, code writing, and processing. All ontologies together could be imagined in a pyramid, where the upper, governing, ontologies are broad and nearly constant. Ontologies geared to specific types of information have more variables, serving as templates for specific types of projects. [posted by [[DeborahMacPherson]] / 2007.02.01] &lt;br /&gt;
