Abstract

The problem of versioning is present in several application areas, such as temporal databases, real-time computing and ontologies. This problem is generally defined as managing changes in a timely manner without loss of existing data. However, ontology versioning is more complicated than versioning in database because of the usage and content of ontology which incorporates semantic aspects. Consequently, ontology data models are much richer than those of database schemas. In this chapter, the authors are interested in developing an ontology versioning system to express, apply and implement changes on the ontology.
