Abstract

Considering the status reporting activity on a Software Configuration Managment (SCM) process, this paper presents a new version of an ontology that aims to represent the knowledge domain related to the essential phases of: issue identification, issue evaluation, and change execution. Concepts, relations, properties, and axioms are presented for this ontology so competence questions can be answered. The work discusses an application scenario in a real project which exposes the possibities of generating knowledge from SCM data repositories using the proposed SCM ontology as a solution for semantic information integration.
