Goal:

Teaching ODPs in an ontology engineering course at UPM, Madrid.

Brief description

The ODP part of this course contains a 2 hour lecture on ODPs and a homework exercise. Instructions for the homework can be found here.

Instructions for homework exercise:

• Work in pairs of two students.
• Study the Content ODPs in the catalogue (in this wiki, see menu on the left 'catalogues'->'Content ODPs'), decide which ones you want to use, download and reuse their OWL building blocks while modelling. You have to reuse, i.e. import, at least one Content ODP in your solution.
• Try to apply the XD method (e.g. do testing through transforming CQs into SPARQL queries)
• Solve the modelling problem (see exercise below). The CQs and contextual statement are your requirements, the rest is just an example scenario description.
• After working on the problem for 3 hours (or less if you finished the task already) save the OWL file and send it to me (evabl444<<at>>gmail<<dot>>com or eva<<dot>>blomqvist<<at>>istc<<dot>>cnr<<dot>>it). Be sure to state the names of both the students in your group clearly in the e-mail. This is not an exam! It helps us to see how difficult you found the exercise, to assess the size and difficulty of the task.
• When you send your first version of the ontology, you will receive a short questionnaire back, this is for evaluating the course and your experience with using the patterns. Please fill it out individually and submit it to me by e-mail.
• When you have finished the ontology, covered all the CQs and the contextual statement, send the final version of the OWL-file to me (e-mail see above). You need to have modelled at least 2/3 of the CQs correctly in order to pass.
• Deadline for final submission is December 16 at 1pm.
