WDO-It!

[[HasLongDescription::Ontologies are developed for several purposes including the support for search, information integration and services discovery. At the same time, organizations developing ontologies are also using workflow techniques to support the computation of complex activities. Workflow-driven ontology (WDO) is a new approach for ontology design. Typically, use cases are used to drive the design of ontologies. In the WDO approach, the elicitation and connection of concepts required to specify abstract workflow specifications are used to drive the design of ontologies. We claim that these abstract workflow specifications are indeed the use cases for WDOs. For instance, in the context of a WDO, if a concept is defined as a kind-of data, it must be either the input to or output of some concept defined as a kind-of method. In this case, both data and method are core concepts of WDOs.

Due to the very nature of the process of designing WDOs, they provide an intentional support to workflow development. WDOs can capture knowledge as any other ontology; however, they offer an additional benefit: by using workflow specifications derived from WDOs, domain experts can validate specifications of key concepts within WDOs.]]
