Abstract
Formal modelling is a challenging and expensive task, especially for people not familiar with design techniques and formal languages. In this paper we present the modelling experience within the APOSDLE EU-project, and we describe the methodology we have developed to support an integrated modelling process of the ontologies and workflows inside APOSDLE. Our approach is based on two main pillars: (i) the usage of Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) for the collaborative development of informal models to be created, and (ii) a tight, and as much as possible automatic, integration of the SMW withtoolsforformalmodelling,inordertoreusetheinformal models for formal models creation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
