Ron, Gabriel et al: You may be interested in a KOS project that is focused on ensuring accuracy in communications about activity procedures, information flows required, metric measurements and general knowledge sharing. Metlife's Asset Inventory Management programme is developing for deployment an Information Technology Service Management Ontology consisting of the terms and concepts of ISO 20000 (BS 15000 / ITIL Framework) activities and information flows. Ontology / KOS alignment will be based on: „h The ontology is represented as OWL classes that describe (or define) part of the IT Service Management domain. OWL object class elements will use XML Schema datatypes. „h The ontology is to be used in data affinity matrixes that identify class / element / datatype utilization within process information flows and data models supporting Asset Inventory Management / Configuration Management / Capacity Planning / Financial Budget Management / Service Request Management / Service Level Management. „h The kernel ontology defines the relationships between different Asset/Inventory Management asset classes. „h The ontology references elements used in Templates and other standardized record management structures defined in an enterprise wide data dictionary. cheers carl <quote who="Gabriel Hopmans"> > Dear Ron, > > CEN, one of three European ICT standards organizations, started a year > ago a workshop called ADNOM. >> You can find information about ADNOM at: > http://www.cenorm.be/cenorm/businessdomains/businessdomains/isss/activity/adnom.asp > Gabriel ............. > Ron Davies wrote: > >> My apologies in advance for cross-posting. >> >> For a presentation this spring, I am trying to collect information on >> practical, real world uses of standards for sharing and making use of >> networked knowledge organisation systems.
