Ontology Building Process
We adopted NeOn methodology [Suárez-Figueroa,
2012] to build ECAO ontology, "ESI Competence
Application Ontology"
We combined two scenarios(from 9 scenarios):
1. Development from scratch (scenario 1):
specification, conceptualization and formalization
2. Reuse and Reengineering of ontological resources
(scenario 4)](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/acompetencylocationsystembasedontologypresentation-140610110442-phpapp02/85/A-competency-location-system-based-ontology-presentation-7-320.jpg)

- 3. 10/06/2014COSI' 2014 3 Competency location system objectives: 1. Improve the quality of work: Identification of the most competent person to perform a task 2. Improve the productivity: Reduce the time required to perform a task 3. Improve the management of the human capital: Global vision of the available skills in the Organization Motivation
- 4. 10/06/2014COSI' 2014 4 Motivation Our current CLS has some shortcomings: • Input through free text: possibility of spelling errors, use of synonyms and ineffective information search • Exclusive use of tags to describe the stored data, which leads to a lack of semantics
- 5. 10/06/2014COSI' 2014 5 in order to address these shortcomings, the system has to be enhanced with an application ontology for the location of intra organizational skills Expected ontology benefits: • Use of a controlled vocabulary: same vocabulary for all members of the organization • Enrichment of terms with semantics, efficient skills research and a better management skills Proposed Solution

- 20. 10/06/2014COSI' 2014 20 Typical competencies to be modeled in our domain are: • Technical abilities, such as programming languages, database management systems, operating systems or optimization tools • Engineering competences, such as networking, computer architecture, human-computer interaction or knowledge management • Social competences, such as coaching, collaboration or communication • Language skills such as writing, reading or speaking • Business competences such as auditing, management or selling ECAO Ontology

- 25. 10/06/2014COSI' 2014 25 The integration of ECAO ontology in the competence location system includes: • Update the CLS Database according to the new conceptual schema, such as adding missing tables and programming the new constraints on the database • Update the CLS program according to the ontology constraints, such as to replace the free text input fields with extensible lists of predefined values … New CLS based Ontology Phase 6: Integration (ongoing work)
- 26. 10/06/2014COSI' 2014 26 What We did: • we designed a new architecture of our current competency location system (add the semantic perspective) • we developed a competency application ontology (best practices of ontology development) to be integrated in the CLS What remains to be done: • To Integrate the developed ontology in the CLS • To Evaluate the new CLS Conclusion & future work
