Integrating System Design Information Using a Self-Defining Ontology

Paper presented at the 23rd International Semantic Web Conference, Baltimore, MD (November 2024)

Engineers use a variety of software tools to support system design and development. These tools help engineers encode and reason about complex requirements and designs, but they also create data silos of information related to the components and systems they are designing. We describe a self-defining ontology approach that automatically extracts an ontological representation of system design information from tool-specific design data to integrate information across tools and to validate system designs for faster error-free design and development of new systems.
