Why this choice?

• Other contexts and experiences
• Automotive, to trace vehicles
• Aerospace, to trace aeromobiles
• Health, to trace patient
• E-learning, to develop knowledge systems
• All based on Ontology

ISO-10303
ISO-TC-215
5
Who said it is useful and why

• Mizoguchi (1995)
• Ontology provides a common vocabulary, and an
  explication of what has been often left implicit.
  
• The systematization of knowledge and the
  standardization consitutes the backbone of
  knowledge within a knowledge-based system.
• A metamodel functionality specifies the concepts
  and relations among them, which are used as the
  main building blocks

6
What happened in HELEN - 1

• 1) Studing laws, guides and recommendations to
  define a VET System
• 2) Building a Semantic Model

7
What happened in HELEN - 2

• 3) Studing laws, guides and recommendations to
  define a VET System
• 4) Building another Semantic Model

8
What happened in HELEN - 3

• 3) Validation of the model
• Identification of case studies
• Verification of the congruence of the case
  studies with the model updating of the model if
  necessary
• 4) Case studies, instances
• Single courses have been described according to
  the model in order to verify the correspondence
  with real experiences.

What will happen in HELEN
Thats the question !?
This concepts can be mapped directly, or by
adding new entities??

H.E.LE.N. Key Activities

• H.E.LE.N. Key Activities are
• The analysis of post-secondary non-academic
  training models in the partner states and how
  they are inserted within the national training
  system (Ph.6 A.10, Ph.6 A.7)
• The definition of the cases of study on the topic
  of Qualification Standards and Certificates for
  every strategic partner (Ph.6 A.1)
• The acquisition of informative and knowledge
  basis (Ph.4 A.8)
• The construction of national models (Ph.4 A.12)
• The construction of the meta-model for the link
  with the national models (Ph.6 A.5)
• The formalization - test of links among models
  (Ph.6 A.6)

H.E.LE.N. Key Activity 4Model construction

• The DCs translate the models containing the
  study cases from a human understandable format
  into a machine underst. one (OWL Ontology
  Language).
• 1st part. Model translation (Schema)
• 2nd part. Study Case translation (Instances)

40
H.E.LE.N. Key Activity 4Model construction
ontology

• The term is generally used to refer to a shared
  understanding of some domain of interest, that
  is, a model,
• stored in such a way (format) that can be machine
  interpretable and understandable (main difference
  with a normal model).
• ontology will be specified using a logic-based
  formal language, usually called ontology language.

41
H.E.LE.N. Key Activity 4Model construction
ontology

• An ontology represents a sort of world view with
  respect to a given domain.
• This world view is generally modeled as a group
  of
• concepts (e.g. entities, things, attributes, and
  processes),
• their definitions and
• the interrelationships among them.

H.E.LE.N. Key Activity 5Linking mechanism
definition

• This will promote citizen mobility taking
  advantage of the transparency of the
  qualifications and adding mechanisms for
  migrating from one system to another at an
  abstract level, that is, at the level of the
  considered models (ontologies).
