Purposedifferent | The NeOn Methodology structures ontology work as a controlled process with reuse, scenarios, and reviews. It is useful when ontologies should not emerge ad hoc but modularly and reusably. | For an event with a complicated course, the method breaks down the contributing factors along the timeline. It shows how conditions, decisions, and reactions together produce a course of events. | For a safety-relevant event or a system with high protection requirements, the method examines where controls failed. It exposes both technical and organizational gaps. | Linked Open Terms connects terminology work with linked-data thinking and makes terminology technically connectable. Vocabulary, meanings, and references can thereby be maintained consistently. |
