Abstract

Ontology design and development is rapidly becoming a study in its own rite. It consists of a set of processes that work together to advance ontologies from simple, static documents to complex and dynamic networks of semantic concepts that describe a domain. This paper discusses these processes with a particular focus on ontology evolution. Ontology evolution has arisen from a demand to track and detect changes in ontologies and the environments in which they live. We review this subset of the ontology development domain and propose an alternate evolutionary model for ontology evolution. We propose an alternative model for ontology development that borrows from notions found in natural evolution. Pursuing a coarse that is well-suited for ontology evolution will yield benefits by easing and simplifying the process of ontology evolution.
