On Semantics in Onto-DIY
1 like374 views
The document summarizes the Onto-DIY workshop paper on semantics in Onto-DIY. It discusses how Onto-DIY allows both technical and non-technical users to semantically define concepts, rules, and services. It also describes how semantics are represented in ontologies, semantic decision tables, and user-centric services in the Onto-DIY environment. Finally, it outlines future work such as automatic mapping between the different semantic divisions and social, context-aware service creation tools.

Onto-DIY DIY Aspects • Starting point: needs of extending existing hardware/software compositions, e.g., – new ambient objects are plugged in • No existing concept type in Ω • New object instance with existing concept type – wants to use new concepts, not defined in Ω server – wants to define new rules • Use Meaning Evolution Support Systems to create new concepts in Ω 21/09/2012 | pag. 12

Semantics in User-Centric Services • User centric service: apply user-centered design (UCD) process in designing a useful and easy-to-use service, – user motivation, user requirements, user behaviors, user interactions • Propose: develop a semantic service creation assistant, – suggest a set of syntactically or semantically related services that can be connected to the existing service 21/09/2012 | pag. 15

- 17. Conclusion • Onto-DIY – use SDRule-L and DL to formalize the semantics in Onto-DIY – But, it is recommended to use any kinds of conceptual modeling means, as long as they meet the request and technically/conceptually sound. 21/09/2012 | pag. 17
- 18. Future Work • Create an automatic mapping between the semantics in the three semantic divisions • User-centric service creation – Context-aware service creation – tracing end-users’ behaviors and help them to organize and filter information in order to provide personalized service – Service creation with trust – assisting end-users to control privacy policies to protect their sensitive data in a nonintrusive manner – Social service co-creation – allowing users to share their existing “Do-It- Yourself” solutions with others in order to “Do-It-Together” – Social service venue sharing – bringing a business concern to Onto-DIY in order to promote software innovation and encourage users to create their solutions and provide to the market 21/09/2012 | pag. 18
