An Ontological Approach for Developing Domain-Independent Groupware

Description
Summary:Within groupware systems, collaborative modelling systems play an important role. However, they are difficult to build and domain-specific. In this article we propose the use of the so-called domain-independent modelling systems, which are more flexible and adapt better when new domains appear. We have developed ontologies to support the construction of such systems, defining the domain as well as the goal to reach and the tasks to carry out.
