Title Ontology Versioning and Effect Space
Abstract Ontology versioning provides a mechanism to keep track of the ontology evolution. In this talk, we propose a framework to examine and evaluate ontology versioning and ontology changes. We propose the notion of effect space to measure ontology changes and their effect quantitatively. The approach of the effect space has been used to analyze SEKT legal ontologies and the Dutch general election data 2006 (Wouter's data). This talk discusses how the notion of the effect space can be used for the analysis.
