PART 1: Introducing Ontol ogy and OWL – This is a lively interactive session where we learn tog ether by doing. Building and populating business ontologies in triple stores is of growing importance to the enterprise, helping to reduce comple xity and improve flexibility in enterprise systems. We introduce the f ollowing foundational building blocks for an ontology, starting with inform al terminology and transitioning to the technical terms of OWL.

    \n Individual things are OWL individuals - e.g., JaneDoe\n Kinds of things are OWL classes - e.g., Organization\n Kinds of relationships are OWL properties - e.g., worksFor\n

Participants identify what the key things are in everyday subject s such as healthcare and finance and how they are related to each other.&nb sp;We start to build an ontology in healthcare, using this as a driver to i ntroduce needed constructs in OWL. We demonstrate how to formally describe the meaning of concepts. We introduce some common patterns and pitfalls. We show how inference can assist the ontology engineering process. Key t opics and learning points will be:

\n\n An ontology is a model of some subject matter that you care about. It is represented as triples.\n The ontology is a semantic schema that gives the data meaning.\n Inference generates new triples and helps to ensure the correctness of the ontology.\n We present some of the more widely used patterns and most common pitfalls.& nbsp;\n\n

PART 2: Enterprise Ontology: a hot knife th rough complexity - An enterprise ontology is a small and elegant representa tion of the core concepts in your enterprise that are stable over time.&nbs p;We introduce gist, an upper enterprise ontology containing a set of gener ic enterprise concepts used to kick-start enterprise ontology development. Its scope includes people, organizations, agreements, physical things, plac es, content, time, and events. We explain how enterprise ontology is used t o create semantic solutions that are much simpler than conventional solutio ns. Removing so much complexity is the key to agility and is a natural fit for a data-centric architecture.
