| Abstract Scope |
The Maritime Industrial Base’s (MIB) mission to revolutionize the U.S. Navy’s shipbuilding capabilities requires the construction of a digital manufacturing ecosystem with the ability to interconnect multiple digital resources. To this end, an Advanced Manufacturing data ontology (MIBO-ADVM) has been identified as a key enabling component to make data interoperable and accessible across the MIB’s Industrial Base – Cloud Hosted Enterprise (IB-CHE). The ontology-powered cloud environment will help to streamline data analysis and support rapid decision-making at the point of need. This presentation will explore the ontological development methodology behind MIBO-ADVM and its conformance to the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) and Common Core Ontology (CCO) upper and middle ontologies. A top-down (use case driven) and bottom-up (data driven) approach to the development of the ontology will be discussed. The use of existing standards, ontologies, and data models to accelerate MIBO-ADVM development will also be examined. |
