Abstract

In this paper, we describe an ontology design approach defined in the framework of the VISPO (Virtual-district Internet-based Service PlatfOrm) project to support knowledge sharing and service composition in virtual districts. Our approach operates on document descriptions and e-Service specifications by applying semi-automated analysis and classification techniques to derive ontological concepts and semantic relationships. The approach is supported by the ARTEMIS integration environment.
