Protege

An extensible framework for the
definition of domain ontologies.


Very suitable for an OO system design.
Additional tools augment capabilities.

OntoViz


Ontology visualization tool.
XML, XML Backend/Schema Backend

Set of tools allowing use of XML.
Zope

A content management system.




Common “look and feel.”
Document (configuration) management.
Mention of worflows and processes in the
context of media solutions.
“Zope is an open-source web application
server. ... writing web pages, programming
web scripts, using databases, managing
content, or doing a collaborative web
development task …”
Argo/UML


Graphical design environment for OO
software design, development, and
documentation.
Design critics and a “to-do” list to
support UML development.
Trying out Protege

Defined class structures for process
elements.



Using PML definitions as an initial basis
[Noll and Scacchi2001].
Defined instances of these classes for
a small example (OpenOffice).
Created graphs for each.

Conclusion


Protégé seems able to handle most
process formalization needs.
Work needed for perfect handing

New plug-ins?
Enhanced plug-ins?
Tweaking of the model?
