Researcher in Ontology-Driven Software Engineering for Architectural Ontology Reuse Recommendation System Development

Job description

Onto4Reuse is a service-oriented framework that supports the systematic reuse of standardised ontologies, bridging enterprise architecture and ontology-based software engineering. Rather than relying on individual expertise, the framework operationalises ontology reuse as an explicit architectural activity by guiding architects through the identification, selection, alignment, and modularization of (standardised) ontologies.

Central to the framework is the Architectural Ontology Recommendation Service, which leverages Enterprise Architecture models (e.g., ArchiMate and EIRA) to derive semantic requirements from stakeholders goals, requirements, business objects, and integration patterns. By orchestrating a set of interconnected services the framework provides traceable recommendations for reusable ontologies that are aligned with architectural decisions and enterprise objectives, ultimately promoting semantic interoperability in distributed ...
