1. An Integrated Approach to Information Modeling for the Sustainable Design of Products
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 8/7/2013
Authors: Paul W Witherell, Douglas Eddy, Ian Grosse, Sundar Krishnamurty
Abstract: The design process for more sustainable products can be best accomplished in a tradeoff-based design process that can methodically handle conflicting objectives, such as, environmental impact, cost, and product performance. Also, regulations, as repr ...

2. Inferring Intention Through State Representations in Cooperative Human-Robot Environments
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 6/7/2013
Authors: Craig I Schlenoff, Anthony Pietromartire, Zeid Kootbally, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Thomas Rollin Kramer, Sebti Foufou
Abstract: In this paper, we describe a novel approach for inferring intention during cooperative human-robot activities through the representation and ordering of state information. State relationships are represented by a combination of spatial relationships ...

3. An Analysis of OWL-based Semantic Mediation Approaches to Enhance Manufacturing Service Capability Models
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 5/16/2013
Authors: Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Nenad Ivezic, Jun H. Shin, Yunsu Lee
Abstract: Manufacturers require timely and precise information about available manufacturing services to assemble optimal supply chains. Currently, multiple communities develop and use proprietary, ad-hoc manufacturing service models to share information about ...

4. Sustainability through Lifecycle Synthesis of Material Information
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 4/19/2013
Authors: Paul W Witherell, Katherine C Morris, Anantha Narayanan Narayanan, Jae Hyun Lee, Rachuri Rachuri
Abstract: The synthesis of material information across lifecycle stages will lay the foundation for a material information model to support sustainable decision making. This paper explores how material information is represented in select standards that addres ...

5. A Sensor Ontology Literature Review
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7908
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 4/18/2013
Authors: Roger Diack Eastman, Craig I Schlenoff, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Tsai Hong Hong
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to review existing sensor and sensor network ontologies to understand whether they can be reused as a basis for a manufacturing sensor ontology, or if the existing ontologies hold lessons for the development of a new onto ...

6. Concept Analysis to Enrich Manufacturing Service Capability Models
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 3/22/2013
Authors: Jun H. Shin, Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Yunsu Lee, Nenad Ivezic
Abstract: When an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), which makes a final product for the consumer marketplace by purchasing components from its suppliers, faces unexpected supply network failures and market events, models of suppliers’ manufacturing servic ...

7. An Approach to Ontology-Based Intention Recognition Using State Representations
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 10/7/2012
Authors: Craig I Schlenoff, Sebti Foufou, Stephen B. Balakirsky
Abstract: In this paper, we present initial thoughts on an approach to ontology/logic-based intention recognition based on the recognition, representation, and ordering of states. This is different than traditional approaches to intention recognition, which us ...

8. Dynamic customization and validation of product data models using the semantic web tools
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 7/12/2012
Authors: Sylvere Ismael Krima, Allison Barnard Feeney, Sebti Foufou
Abstract: Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) has always required robust solutions for representing product data models. Product data models enable in-formation exchange across different organizations, actors, processes and stages in the product lifecycle. In ...

9. Modeling Gaps and Overlaps of Sustainability Standards
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 5/28/2012
Authors: Paul W Witherell, Rachuri Rachuri, Anna D'Alessio
Abstract: Organizational and production dispersions in manufacturing enterprises can create situations where manufacturers are asked to conform to multiple sustainability standards to participate in targeted markets. These standards may vary in scope, applicat ...

10. Functional Requirements of a Model for Kitting Plans
Topic: Ontologies
Published: 3/22/2012
Authors: Stephen B. Balakirsky, Zeid Kootbally, Thomas Rollin Kramer, Rajmohan Madhavan, Craig I Schlenoff, Michael O Shneier
Abstract: Industrial assembly of manufactured products is often performed by first bringing parts together in a kit and then moving the kit to the assembly area where the parts are used to assemble products. Kitting, the process of building kits, has not yet b ...
