The Information Systems Modeling with an Ontology-Based ERD
(2005)
Abstract
Large organizations are eager to seek ways to maximize the values
of the information stored
across the applications, information systems and even the web. However,
various systems
have their own domain models for the environments and tasks. Thus,
the shared domain model
for the heterogeneous information systems (IS) is required. In this
paper, we try to integrate
the techniques of entity-relationship diagram (ERD) and ontology.
We aim to provide a better
schema modeling in the information systems design.
