Title: Ontology Design with the NeOn Toolkit - NeOn tutorial
Author(s): ValentinaPresutti, EvaBlomqvist, AldoGangemi, MariCarmenDeFigueroa, MichaelErdmann, AlessandroAdamou, BorisVillazón-Terrazas

Goal:

To make participants able to develop ontologies from requirements to design, to evaluation by using NeOn technologies.

Brief description

This training course is design for 3 days training, and focuses on NeOn technologies. The content can be described in terms of three main slots: (i) a general introduction to semantic technologies and ontology design, to the languages used for representing data and ontologies (RDF and OWL); and to NeOn methodologies and tools; (ii) the pattern-based approach to ontology design in OWL; (iii) a mini-project in which participants, divided into groups, will move from requirements to design and evaluation.
