Abstract

Mdωπ is a semi-formal modelling language allowing to model graphically static knowledge of a domain under the form of a conceptual network. It makes easier the model translation into a representation formalism as description logics and conceptual graphs. Mdωπ is part of a more general method designed to build domain ontologies from French texts. The approach has been proposed in the context of an industrial application concerning the supervision of telecom networks. Using Mdωπ implies modelling before formal representation in order to avoid the pitfalls of direct representation. Choice of a formalism and its implementation is allowed to be postponed until the representation needs are better known.
