Ontology Engineering Approach to Support Process of Model and Data Integration

On November 2, 2018, researchers at University of Surrey (UK) have presented a paper numbered 728b (access PDF here) making reference to CAPE-OPEN at the AIChE 2018 Annual Meeting, held in Pittsburgh, PA.

The paper by Linsey Koo, Edlira Kalemi and Franjo Cecelja from the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences discusses how to develop the potential for reusability of process models created by engineers.The authors recognize that CAPE-OPEN is the only model integration framework in use and that it addresses the issue of standardisation of interfaces to enable interoperability between simulator software components from different sources.However CAPE-OPEN does not provide much semantic representation of engineering data and hence needs to be complemented by an ontological approach.
