Abstract: An ontology can be seen as a reference model to describe the entities which exist in an universe of discourse and their properties. These entities may be individuals, classes, relationships, and functions. In sum anything that may be useful to describe specific models. In this paper we present a generic task ontology for scheduling problems. The ontology is generic in the sense that it is both domain and application independent. We refer to it as a ‘task ontology’ to emphasise that it describes the class of scheduling tasks, independently of the various ways by which these tasks can be solved. The proposed task ontology has been successfully validated to measure its knowledge capturing capability. Our aim is to move beyond current brittle approaches to system development to provide firm theoretical and engineering foundations to various classes of knowledge-based applications. Keyword: Intelligent Scheduling, Ontologies, Knowledge Modelling, Knowledge Acquisition, Reuse.

Models for Representing Task Ontologies.
Aline Freitas Martins,Ricardo de Almeida Falbo +1 more
- 01 Jan 2008
TL;DR: UML activity diagrams are proposed for capturing task control-flow, and UML class diagrams for capturing the knowledge roles involved in its activities, and the interrelationship between these two models and how they can be combined with domain ontologies is discussed.
A Task Ontology Driven Approach for Live Geoprocessing in a Service‐Oriented Environment
TL;DR: A task ontology driven approach to live geoprocessing is proposed, which not only helps create semantically correct connections between Sensor Web and Web geop rocessing services, but also provides sharable problem solving knowledge using process models.

Ontologies for Software Project Management: A Review
TL;DR: A systematic literature review focusing on software project management ontologies is presented, which has identified lack of standardization in terminology and concepts, lack of systematic domain modelling and use of ontologies mainly in prototype ontology systems that address rather limited aspects ofSoftware project management processes.

KADS: a modelling approach to knowledge engineering
TL;DR: Five basic principles underlying the KADS approach are discussed, namely the introduction of partial models as a means to cope with the complexity of the knowledge engineering process and the importance of structure—preserving transformation of models of expertise into design and implementation.

Implementation of resource constraints in ILOG SCHEDULE: a library for the development of constraint-based scheduling systems
TL;DR: It is hoped-and expected-that object-oriented constraint programming tools like SCHEDULE will enable the industry to make decisive steps toward the implementation of 'state-of-the-art' highly flexible, constraint-based scheduling applications.
