Confid.: Public<br />

By contributing to the explicit definition of the semantic of the knowledge, Ontologging<br />

approaches makes the operations browsing and searching this knowledge more powerful and<br />

higher level. In particular browsing and searching can be done not only at the lexical level,<br />

through keywords, but also exploit the high level concepts that have been defined in the<br />

Ontology and also navigate the semantic networks.<br />

3.2.2.4 Goal 4: Ontologging will facilitate knowledge sharing and exchange<br />

Ontologging by providing shared vocabulary (the ontologies), and making the knowledge<br />

more visible, will contribute to improve the shared understanding of the values of the<br />

organization, and facilitates the communication and the inter-operation between the different<br />

parts of the organizations.<br />

3.3 Selecting the elements to be evaluated (evaluation criteria)<br />

The support of all the knowledge processes / sub-goals that have been identified previously<br />

(structuring role, capitalizing knowledge, searching and browsing knowledge, sharing<br />

knowledge) will have to be evaluated according to a formative, summative and substantive<br />

dimension.<br />

As indicated however, a complete and detailed evaluation of each goal according to the levels<br />

of evaluation introduced in the first section of this document would require a too big effort<br />

and would take too much time. Therefore, only a partial evaluation will be considered, and<br />

will consist in the selection of a subset of the most important and representative elements that<br />

will be evaluated.<br />

This section will first try to identify for each of the goals the different elements that could be<br />

considered candidate for the evaluation. Then, base on their importance, it will select a few of<br />

these elements that will be subject to the effective evaluation of the system in the evaluation<br />

plan.<br />

3.3.1 Identifying the elements associated to each of the goals<br />

Ontologging proposes different means, tools and approaches for fulfilling the goals that have<br />

been previous ly identified.<br />

3.3.1.1 Elements associated to a structuring role (Goal 1)<br />

Ontologging proposes different components / elements to define a rich vocabulary of<br />

concepts, with a well defined (unambiguous) semantic, and agreed across the whole<br />

organization:
