Description of the event
The Ontology Commons Global Workshop is back for its second edition, and this year's event promises to be even more engaging, with a new set of relevant speakers from the industrial sector.
The OntoCommons team is pleased to welcome a group of new industrial experts, who will provide valuable feedback on the needs, challenges, gaps, and priority actions outlined in the first release of the OntoCommons Roadmap. This feedback is crucial for OntoCommons as a Coordination and Support Action, with the objective of harmonising the view on ontology-based interoperability. The project is orchestrating the Ontology Commons Toolkit EcoSystem (OCES), a set of guidelines and alignment tools, which draws its strenght from its pluralistic approach of admitting multiple Top Level Ontologies. It is fundamental that this ecosystem aligns with industry requirements and effectively addresses the challenges and opportunities presented by Industry 5.0.
Furthermore, the workshop provides a common ground for effective dialogue between the materials and manufacturing domains. Materials science plays a critical role in product design and manufacturing. In the recent OntoCommons Focused Workshop Towards Materials and Manufacturing Commons - the enablers Digital Marketplaces, FAIR Principles and Ontologies, EC representatives Laszlo Hetey and Andrea Ceglia talked about the EU Priorities, particularly the Circular Regenerative Economy, which requires systemic thinking at all levels, from the extraction of materials to design, manufacturing, reuse of components and even disassembling technologies. They identified materials as the very engine of innovation. A better communication between these domains, which OntoCommons supports through its work on data interoperability, can lead to more sustainable, efficient, and competitive industries. In the end, this will result in optimised product design, reduced waste, and improvement of the overall efficiency of the materials characterisation, modelling and finally, product manufacturing.
The workshop is held in a hybrid format at the University of Oslo and online from 13 to 16 June 2023.
The workshop offers attendees an opportunity to engage in thought-provoking discussions, exchange insights, and gain a deeper understanding of the latest trends and best practices in the field of ontology. By participating in the workshop, attendees can contribute to shaping the future of the industry and be part of the global conversation on ontologies and data management.
Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to be part of a global network of experts committed to advancing the field of ontology.
Innovative prototyping using the OntoCommons Ecosystem
OntoCommons will conduct multi-day prototyping sessions from the 12th to the 16th of June 2023, aiming to introduce the Ontocommons Ecosystem (OCES) to a wider audience, including ontology practitioners and data modellers from industry and academia. During the prototyping sessions we will be joined by the OntoCommons Demonstrators from IKEA Inter-Global Systems and the EU project Basajaun focusing on a system for managing the wood supply chain. These sessions will provide unique opportunities for the participants to learn using the OCES-recommended ontology engineering methodology and tools for building professional ontologies. We will provide training on various tools that will make your ontology development journey smoother by facilitating practical hands-on sessions with industry-relevant use cases and data. You will learn how to make ontologies sustainable and FAIR.
Topics to be covered:
- Linked Open Terms (LOT) methodology and ontology engineering method from OntoCommons.
- Ontology requirement analysis using ORSD templates.
- Reusing existing ontology – introduction to top-level, middle-level, and domain-specific reference ontologies.
- How to find terms and select the most suitable ontologies for reuse (introduction to Industryportal).
- How to map ontologies using bridge concepts.
- Best practices for ontology development and technical principles.
- Introduction to SousLeSens – an online graph-based visualizer and editor for ontology development.
- How to publish ontology ensuring FAIR metadata and documentation in Industryportal.
- How to test your ontology and ensure its quality.
- Best practices for maintaining ontology for long-term sustainability.
- Data modelling techniques, including knowledge graph creation and update, using SPARQL query or RML (introduction to KGCreator).
Join the prototyping session and bring your own laptop for participating in the hands-on sessions (no equipment will be provided). We will send updates to the registered participants on the specific time and instructions for setting up your laptop.
