jeffw: Hi, Piotr, Eva, Marion
<eblomqvi> hi, I just called in... but I am in a room with a lot of people, so I will be quiet today :-) I'll listen and comment here if I want to say something
<eblomqvi> I'm at a conference :-)
<eblomqvi> WOP paper: accepted and final version submitted
<piotr_nowara> here's the link for a browseable version of my ontology: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0BzXIRCEQZ_BGZTQ0ZGEzZGMtYzMyZC00OWFhLWIzMjctZmE4ZmJmODAwNTdi&hl=en&authkey=CIP8rBU
<eblomqvi> For WOP: we have to present the paper as a poster - I can draft it but then I would like your comments/ideas
<piotr_nowara> I'll put it on a web in the nearest future
jeffw: So the question is whether there is any particular issues we need to address
<eblomqvi> For teh problem proposals we are just waiting for the voting, and let's hope ours will be selected
<eblomqvi> no result yet
<eblomqvi> It will be available in the ceur-ws.org proceedings series, that is publicly available
<eblomqvi> I think so
<eblomqvi> but I can send to Piotr
<eblomqvi> ok, thanks Marion
jeffw: ok, Marion will send Piotr a copy of the paper so he can see it and review
<piotr_nowara> thank you!
<piotr_nowara> There's a link to mind-map(jpg file) summorizing my effort on criterion pattern: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0BzXIRCEQZ_BGMjFhNzc1ZjYtODQwMy00MDFkLWJmZjAtZTVhNzhmZDAyY2Jl&hl=en
<eblomqvi> I don't know if all of you saw my comments to Piotr (sent an hour ago)? I had some problems opening the ontologies/patterns in my tool... did you have the same problems?
<piotr_nowara> I use Protege 4.1 beta - maybe it's incompatible with other browser?
<eblomqvi> hmm, it seems there are some problems yes, I'll try to download Protege later then
@piotr_nowara: Criteria may be represented by situation patterns and it can be accompanied with requirement etc. Conclusion from last meeting a kind of modularization of criteria with different granularity could be created.
@piotr_nowara: So I stuck to that idea, my ontology you can see in the links that I've posted, it contains two patterns basic criteria and the simple ontology to cover most common use cases.
@piotr_nowara: So extension of basic requirements would be for more sophisticated use cases. I'd like to ask, sometime ago someone asked me for an ontology describing industry standards cause a domain expert wanted to provide a client with an automated tool to deploy the standard.
@piotr_nowara: The industry standard is complicated, so the semantic tool would help customer to align their business to the standard. The little example presented in the criterion example file contains a requirement from our original standard.
@piotr_nowara: So I'm trying to represent more components of the standard to vet my model. I tried to analyze the problem of criteria more deeply and more issues came out. Some domain specific criteria, like for starting an action, action purpose, etc.
@piotr_nowara: So if you would like to learn more about my idea of domain-related patterns you could check out the file I've shared with you, which contains a prototype pattern for describing actions.
@piotr_nowara: I would be interested in your feedback for what is right or wrong, someone could double-check me, my English might be misleading, so that's it for now.
<eblomqvi> thanks Piotr, I'll have a detailed look later as well, and give you more comments on the model!
jeffw: (summarized the model
example)
... I found it interesting and I will include my little summary
and comments a bit later in the notes when I'm not talking and
trying to type notes at the same time
@piotr_nowara: Regarding metrics that supply ordering, we may just need to add more components to the situation to specify a preference for lower cost for purchasing a computer or whatever
@piotr_nowara: My criteria may work better for predefined requirements
<eblomqvi> I am listening, it is interesting! No, I think it is too long to write here... I'll write an e-mail
jeffw: So I could use what you've done to represent a "Process", but …. I'll comment more later down below
@piotr_nowara: my goal was to adopt some original criteria pattern for not only describing decision-making but for other purposes, so it was a good thing to do to expand the pattern and with some more percent criteria, and there may be many methods that are satisfying the general requirement and it could probably expand this knowledge base of this model with some specific methodologies
@piotr_nowara: and use them as a basis ...
marion_: I'm not sure which
pattern you were talking about, but how do you represent icons
and gestures in an ontology and connect icons to gestures
... this becomes important in general for linking components
and reuse it as an agreed upon standard
... breaking components of patterns, and specializations of
those patterns, and kind of an expansion of what we've we're
doing now
jeffw: Piotr, we do need to consider the intellectual property rights of what you are "contributing" to the incubator, I will send you something
<eblomqvi> thanks you! bye
@piotr_nowara: I would be happy to consider signing a form to ensure my participation is consistent with the intellectual property rights, since my company is not now supporting my work in this area.
jeffw: Ok, I will find out what
is needed and send you something via email. Thanks.
... Ok, we've run out of time, thanks everyone for
participating. We can proceed to consider Piotr's model and
Eva's contributions in light of our use cases and add to the
modeling effort for discussion over e-mail and at our next
meeting.
... (Here's my summary of the Piotr's model that I didn't have
the ability to type earlier) The example has an "Action" (a1)
that is to perform a software module check. The process or
methods for executing this action include three criteria:
... (c1) checking the software through review; (c2) checking
through simulation; and (c3) checking through testing. These
criteria are "ActionMethodologyCriterion" where are a subclass
of Criterion which is a subclass of Situation.
... Each criterion has a property that it "isCriterionOf" the
action (a1). There are also "ActionSuccessCriterion" including
(c4) determining that the intended function is correctly
executed and (c5) determining that unintended functions are not
executed.
... If anyone were to ask "says who?" about these criterion, we
would point to the "Requirement" (req_13_6_4_2) which comes
from an industry standard which says that "Each application
software module should be checked through review, simulation
and testing techniques to determine that the intended function
is correctly executed and unintended functions are not
executed."
... This requirement, req_13_6_4_2, has properties that it
"setsCriterion" for each of the criteria (c1 through c5) and
also that it "hasValidityFor" the action (a1).
... The "Requirement" class is a subclass of "CriterionSetter"
which doesn't refer to a person, but rather the industry
standard or other statement from which the criteria are
derived.
... Anyway, that's a summary of how the criteria are tied to
the action and the requirement is tied to the action and the
criteria. The situation pattern is used to group the criteria
and provide the mechanism for adding other components as
needed.
... The situation pattern provides a concrete realization of
what otherwise would be an implicit relationship of these
various components.
... The pattern made me think of how I could use it with
perhaps weights and numerical quantities to do both filtering
(yes/no, boolean type determination of whether an option meets
a criterion) but also for ordering the options that remain
because perhaps some options meet the criteria better than
others.
... Also the model made me think about how if the criteria are
highly determined, that the "choice" is removed and the
description of the criteria are similar to a description of
steps in a pre-defined Process.
... I will consider this more and discuss over e-mail and
prepare some contributions to add to the discussion for next
meeting.
