Abstract. The “living ” ontologies that will furnish the Semantic Web are lacking. The problem is that in ontology engineering practice, the underlying methodological and organisational principles to involve the community are mostly ignored. Each of the involved activities in the community-based ontology evolution methodology require certain skills and tools which domain experts usually lack. Finding a social arrangement of roles and responsibilities that must supervise the consistent implementation of methods and tools is a wicked problem. Based on three technology-independent problem dimensions of ontology construction, we propose a set of social performance indicators (SPIs) to bring insights in the social arrangement evolving the ontology, and how it should be adapted to the changing needs of the community. We illustrate the SPIs on data from a realistic experiment in the domain of competency-centric HRM. 1

Abstract. Ontologies such as the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) andthe Gene Ontology (GO) play a major role in biology and medicine since they facilitate data integration and the consistent exchange of information between different entities. They can also be used to index and annotate data and literature, thus enabling efficient search and analysis. Unfortunately, maintaining the ontologies manually is a complex, error-prone, and time and personnel-consuming effort. One major problem is the continuous growth of the biomedical literature, which expands by almost 1 million new scientific papers per year, indexed by Medline. The enormous annual increase of scientific publications constitutes the task of monitoring and following the changes and trends in the biomedical domain extremely difficult. For this purpose, approaches that try to learn and maintain ontologies automatically from text and data have been developed in the past. The goal of this paper is to develop temporal classifiers in order to create, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, an automated method that may predict which regions of the MeSH ontology will expand in the near future. 1

Abstract—Many studies have revealed the fact of the complexity of ontology building process. Therefore there is a need for a new approach which one of that addresses the socio-technical aspects in the collaboration to reach a consensus. Meta-design approach is considered applicable as a method in the methodological model of socio-technical ontology engineering. Principles in the meta-design framework are applied in the construction phases of the ontology. A web portal is developed to support the meta-design principles requirements. To validate the methodological model semantic web applications were developed and integrated in the portal and also used as a way to show the usefulness of the ontology. The knowledge based system will be filled with data of Indonesian medicinal plants. By showing the usefulness of the developed ontology in a semantic web application, we motivate all stakeholders to participate in the development of knowledge based system of medicinal plants in
