Abstract

In general, it is advisable to evaluate ontology designed quality before developing an Information System based on Ontologies. Principles of ontology design, focus on ontologies design that can be reusable, easy-to-use, maintain and update over time. In this work a model for quality verification of the ontology design is proposed, it is based on ontology design principles of [4, 20, 22]. Methodology starts with an analysis of design principles, then principles are grouped into verification or evaluation collections and following verification techniques was established: 1) minimalist; 2) consistency; 3) flexibility; 4) standardization; 5) redundancy; and 6) efficiency. The main contribution of this work is a qualitative and quantitative model for the verification of an ontology applying design principles. As an application case, quality evaluation of ontological model for OntoPAA is performed, results show that ontology evaluated complies with design techniques that guarantee an adequate level of quality.
