Abstract
Interlocking Institutional Worlds (IWs) is a concept explaining the need to interoperate between institutions (or players), to solve problems of common interest in a given domain. Managing knowledge in the IWs domain is complex, but promoting knowledge sharing based on standards and common terms agreeable to all players is essential and is something that must be established. In this sense, ontologies, as a conceptual tool and a key component of knowledge-based systems, have been used by organizations for effective knowledge management of the domain of discourse. There are many methodologies that have been proposed by several researchers during the last decade. However, designing a domain ontology for IWs needs a well-defined ontology development methodology. Therefore, in this article, a survey has been conducted to compare ontology development methodologies between 2015 and 2020. The purpose of this survey is to identify limitations and benefits of previously developed ontology development methodologies. The criteria for the comparison of methodologies has been derived from evolving trends in literature. Our findings give some guidelines that help to define a suitable methodology for designing any domain ontology under the domain of interlocking institutional worlds.

A social reality has elements, and each element is called an institutional fact
Speech act are formal statements created by officials of organizations
Keeping in view the empirical studies, such as [44, 45, and 48], we postulate the following research question discussed in the following subsections to study the design of ontologies: How ontology development methodology can be proposed to design a domain ontology of Institutional Worlds (IWs)?
Summary
A social reality has elements, and each element is called an institutional fact. In a context A, a physical reality B will be titled as an institutional fact C. Speech act are formal statements created by officials of organizations. These speech acts create and destroy institutional facts. Two institutional facts, wife and husband, are created by the marriage speech act. This speech act destroys two institutional facts such as an unmarried women and a single man. Speech acts can be used in creating institutions. Any positive physical posture as a speech act may or may not be positive in another area (jurisdiction). The financial crisis of the subprime mortgages of 2008 had at least an impact on the world as the undeniably physical tsunami of 2004
