Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the importance of the concept of capability for describing what an action does from a functional perspective. We introduce a conceptual model for representing capabilities as attribute features entities. Furthermore, we use Formal Concept Analysis to create concept lattices for indexing a repository of capabilities descriptions. We applied this approach on a set of sensor capabilities deployed within the Linked Energy Intelligence dataspace.
