| Summary: | The development of domain ontology is important in building a list of vocabulary whereas the process of sharing and reusing this knowledge management can be accomplished easily. This paper presents the challenges that arise in the ontology development area by focusing on one domain concept. Domain concept here can be transversed from different disciplines, such as agricultural, medicine,
human-anatomy, and automotive. The assessments on the
challenges vary among numerous ontology projects. The
challenges can be influenced by the use of minority
languages as the local resources since these languages are
resource constrained compared to languages such as
English that are rich in resource availability. Apart from
that, minority languages tend to have issues concerning
different morphological structures and grammatical
structures. Numbers of existing ontologies for different
disciplines had been produced in English language but little
has been done for indigenous languages such as Iban. The
main contribution here resides in the ontology development
itself, which emphasise on the best means for a beginner to
design, develop and deploy the ontology. Research based on
the previous work and possible solution is presented in this
paper. |
