Research on ontology is becoming increasingly widespread in the
computer science community. While this term has been rather
confined to the philosophical sphere in the past, it is now gaining
a specific role in areas such as Artificial Intelligence,
Computational Linguistics, and Databases. Its importance has been
recognized in fields as diverse as knowledge engineering, knowledge
representation, qualitative modeling, language engineering,
database design, information integration, object-oriented analysis,
information retrieval and extraction, knowledge management and
organization, agent-based systems design. Current applications
areas are disparate, including enterprise integration, natural
language translation, medicine, mechanical engineering, electronic
commerce, geographic information systems, legal information
systems, and biological information systems. Various workshops
addressing the engineering aspects of ontology have been held in
the recent years. However, ontology by 'its very nature' ought to
be a unifying discipline. Insights in this field have potential
impact on the whole area of information systems (taking this term
in its broadest sense), as testified by the interest recently shown
by international standards organizations. In order to provide a
solid general foundation for this work, it is therefore important
to focus on the common scientific principles and open problems
arising from current tools, methodologies, and applications of
ontology.
