A CONCEPTUAL MODEL FOR CONSTRUCTION OF DOMAIN ONTOLOGY
The construction of domain ontology is regarded as a process of modeling in this research. The modeling of ontology conceptual model (OCM) is an important approach to identify the concepts and establish the relations of concepts. The essential primitives of OCM are discussed in detail, and the emphasis is put on the analysis of semantic relationships. The basic semantic relationships, which should be expressed in OCM, are: is-a, subset, aggregation,instance-of, association; then, based on semantic analysis,the modeling of OCM is illustrated by an example. The research in this paper sets the foundation for further development of methodology.
