They enhance these systems through background knowledge stored in ontologies. However, in most cases, resources in these systems change very fast. In consequence, they require a dynamic and agile change of underlying ontologies. Also, the formality of these ontologies must fit the users needs and capabilities and must be appropriate and usable. Therefore, a continuous, collaborative and work or task integrated development of these ontologies is required. In this paper, we present how these requirements occur in real world applications and how they are solved and implemented using our Ontology Maturing Process Model.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2199d4ed905b55aba27f8f6c9c3d460fc/mature}, keywords = {fzi from:aschmidt conference ipe ontology_engineering ontology_maturing lang:en imagenotion matureip} } @inproceedings{RavenscroftLEB08, title = {Ontologies, Dialogue and Knowledge Maturing: Towards a Mashup and Design Study}, author = {Andrew Ravenscroft and Simone Braun and John Cook and Andreas Schmidt and Jenny Bimrose and Alan Brown and Claire Bradley}, booktitle = {1st International Workshop on Learning in Enterprise 2.0 and Beyond}, editor = {Andreas Schmidt and Graham Attwell and Simone Braun and Stefanie Lindstaedt and Ronald Maiaer and Eric Ras}, series = {CEUR Workshop Proceedings}, year = 2008, url = {http://mature-ip.eu/files/leb08/leb08_ravenscroft.pdf}, timestamp = {2008.09.17}, abstract = {This paper proposes an initial design study to examine and test some of the key concepts and issues within a large-scale European research project that is exploring and aiming to realise learning as a process of knowledge maturing in the workplace.

However, they aim at knowledge of different degrees of maturity. Central hypothesis of this paper is that the approaches can be integrated on the basis of a process that explicitly aims at designing the transitions of knowledge along varying degrees of maturity. The knowledge maturing process is presented as a conceptual model for explaining and analyzing disruptions in the inter-individual flow of knowledge within organizations. These disruptions can be attributed to a fragmented systems landscape and separated organizational units that foster knowledge of different degrees of maturity. The paper presents criteria for a characterization of this process model and discusses its implications for the design of learning support systems.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/277669e8cea807bba14ad3b0b77c39b21/mature}, keywords = {knowledge_maturing professional_learning maturing aps lang:en ipe km from:aschmidt knowledge_management elearning fzi workshop} } @inproceedings{HappelSchmidt07, title = {Knowledge Maturing as a Process Model for Describing Software Reuse}, address = {Berlin}, author = {Hans-Jörg Happel and Andreas Schmidt}, booktitle = {4th Conference Professional Knowledge Management - Experiences and Visions (WM '07), Potsdam, Workshop on Learning Software Organizations (LSO 07)}, pages = {155-164}, publisher = {GITO}, volume = 2, year = 2007, url = {http://www.andreas-p-schmidt.de/publications/Happel_Schmidt_KnowledgeMaturing_SWReuse_wm07_lso.pdf}, timestamp = {2007.03.29}, abstract = {Software reuse has become a major topic in software engineering since reusing artifacts has an important effect on the cost and quality of software products. Accordingly, understanding and managing the mechanisms of software reuse is important for every organization that develops software. In this paper we describe a knowledge maturing process in software engineering and use it to analyze two cases of reusable software artifacts. We argue that the "reusability" of a software artifact is not just an immanent property of the artifact itself, but depends on the "maturity" of the knowledge the artifact embodies. We show that the notion of knowledge maturing can serve as a useful lens for understanding reuse processes and suggest further investigations towards a more holistic concept of reusability.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/29d3b9598ae29509aefa88a893da662cd/mature}, keywords = {from:aschmidt lang:en knowledge_maturing ipe fzi maturing aps professional_learning workshop software_engineering} } @inproceedings{BraunSchmidtWalterWWW07, title = {Ontology Maturing: a Collaborative Web 2.0 Approach to Ontology Engineering}, author = {Simone Braun and Andreas Schmidt and Andreas Walter and Gabor Nagypal and Valentin Zacharias}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Workshop on Social and Collaborative Construction of Structured Knowledge at the 16th International World Wide Web Conference (WWW 07), Banff, Canada}, year = 2007, url = {http://www.andreas-p-schmidt.de/publications/ontology_maturing_braun_schmidt_walter_www07.pdf}, timestamp = {2007.05.08}, pdf = {http://www.andreas-p-schmidt.de/publications/ontology_maturing_braun_schmidt_walter_www07.pdf}, owner = {aschmidt}, abstract = {Most of the current methodologies for building ontologies rely on specialized knowledge engineers. This is in contrast to real-world settings, where the need for maintenance of domain specific ontologies emerges in the daily work of users.

We introduce the ontology maturing processes which is based on the insight that ontology engineering is a collaborative informal learning process and for which we analyze characteristic evolution steps and triggers that have users engage in ontology engineering within their everyday work processes. This model integrates tagging and folksonomies with formal ontologies and shows maturing pathways between them. As implementations of this model, we present two case studies and the corresponding tools. The first is about image-based ontology engineering (introducing so-called imagenotions), the second about ontology-enabled social bookmarking (SOBOLEO).
