Abstract :
IDEONTM/IPPD is the ontology for modeling, analyzing, and managing processes within the systems engineering enterprise. IDEON TM/IPPD is an extension of IDEONTM, an enterprise ontology that provides the conceptual foundation for modeling, analyzing, integrating, managing, and aiding the execution of enterprise processes. This paper presents the key issues in creating the ontology, discusses the underlying design principles and functional requirements, and describes the various entity types and their relationships
