Toward a Community Vision Driven Topical Ontology in Human Resource Management

Today's industries require ontology engineering to be more community vision driven and ontological resources have more dimensions. This paper shows our achieved goals in the EU Prolix project. Firstly, we analyze the user requirements, including tuning Business Process Modelling efforts into ontology engineering tasks. Secondly, we design a scalable and community driven architecture for ontology development. Then, feasible ontology models are created. The task of creating ontology models depends heavily on conceptual architecture of ontology based competence analysis. We illustrate with the requirement analysis from BT (British Telecom).
