In the KMY Working Group meetings, held February through June, 2013, a first draft  terms or concepts relating to the Knowledge Mobilization domain were listed and agreed upon. These concepts or classes, are listed in the Knowledge Mobilization Ontology v.0 page in this wiki.  Next, the scope of that domain was identified. A critical question in that process deserves revisiting.

For what types of questions the information in the ontology should provide answers? List those here...

Next, what are some competency questions that we can identify in order to assess the scope of the KMY?

"One of the ways to determine the scope of the ontology is to sketch a list of questions that a knowledge base based on the ontology should be able to answer, competency questions (Gruninger and Fox 1995). These questions will serve as the litmus test later: Does the ontology contain enough information to answer these types of questions? Do the answers require a particular level of detail or representation of a particular area? These competency questions are just a sketch and do not need to be exhaustive."

What are our competency questions? List those here...

Steps two through seven were followed in designing KMY. We will (quickly) review these steps and complete the review exercise by reexamining re-examining KMY Use Cases, and moving through the application (as various users) to determine what classes are redundant, what classes require refining, or do not meet our needs. The same assessment will be applied to properties.

NOTES:

  1. class: kmyBrokeringProcess Is this a property or a class?
  2. class: kmy:LeadPartnerRole A subclass of PartnerRole. To be renamed KeyPartner, in alignment with KMb terminology. 
  3. class: kmy:CollaboratorPartnerRole (Public sitting on advisory committee); Do we need this? To find out how many non-university people are engaged with university on committees, etc. Would the project class have contributors that are external and on committees? What benefit are we getting by naming the "flavour" of the association?
  4. kmy:LaySummary Should this be in KMY or VIVO Core as part of the Overview property group.
