- PublicationMétadonnées seulementObject-Oriented Modeling with Ontologies Around: A Survey of Existing Approaches(2018-12-23)
; Despite the many integration tools proposed for mapping between OWL ontologies and the object-oriented paradigm, developers are still reluctant to incorporate ontologies into their code repositories. In this paper we survey existing approaches for OWL-to-OOP mapping trying to identify reasons for this shy adoption of ontologies among conventional software developers. We present a classification of the surveyed approaches and tools based on their technical characteristics and their resulting artifacts. We discuss further potential reasons beyond what have been addressed in the literature before finally providing our own reflection and outlook. - PublicationMétadonnées seulementObject-oriented Software Modeling with Ontologies Around(2018-7-1)

; Most recent efforts on bringing ontologies into mainstream programming languages were hindered by some fundamental issues; mainly the lack of expressiveness of programming languages compared to the declarative nature of ontological languages as well as the different assumptions on which reasoning in these languages is based on. In this paper we give the idea of adopting ontological programming approaches a second thought by proposing a prototype for a C# ontological knowledgebase system where ontologies are expressed directly in an executable form. We present our experience on bridging the semantic gab in general purpose programming languages and on exploiting metaprogramming and the dynamic compilation feature of modern compilers for performing certain entailment queries without the need for the bulky ontology classification step usually required in the case of conventional ontological tools. - PublicationMétadonnées seulementProcedural extensions for executable ontologies in conventional software developmentOntologies have gone lengths in various areas of knowledge engineering, yet they are falling short of reaching an equal position as formal domain models in the landscape of enterprise software development. In this paper, we present an approach for integrating ontologies into the code space of conventional software. We argue that the limited adoption of ontologies in software development is partially due to the lack of imperative programming capabilities. We propose extending ontologies with procedural extensions by expressing them in an executable form. Finally, we discuss the advantages of this representation and the possibilities for further improvements.
- PublicationMétadonnées seulementOntoJIT: Parsing Native OWL DL into Executable Ontologies in an Object Oriented ParadigmDespite meriting the growing consensus between researchers and practitioners of ontology modeling, the Web Ontology Language OWL still has a modest presence in the communities of “traditional” web developers and software engineers. This resulted in hoarding the semantic web field in a rather small circle of people with a certain profile of expertise. In this paper we present OntoJIT, our novel approach toward a democratized semantic web where we bring OWL ontologies into the comfort-zone of end-application developers. We focus particularly on parsing OWL source files into executable ontologies in an object oriented programming paradigm. We finally demonstrate the dynamic code-base created as the result of parsing some reference OWL DL ontologies.
