Description

Smart city ecosystems concepts comprising firms, public authorities, and other stakeholders demonstrate innovative characteristics and high dynamics, thus enforcing both the integration between ontology management and information systems to be adaptable in short iteration periods in modern enterprises. In this paper, we describe the challenges of integrating ontology services in information systems in the context of Smart City Ecosystems. From a design science research cycle, we derive a holistic approach to integrate the ontology management process and its use in the collaborative information systems. Additionally, we describe the reference architecture for such ontology-based information systems, which allows multiple roles to create and modify the mobility ecosystem model in an agile process.

Towards an Ontology-Based Information System for Smart City Ecosystems

Smart city ecosystems concepts comprising firms, public authorities, and other stakeholders demonstrate innovative characteristics and high dynamics, thus enforcing both the integration between ontology management and information systems to be adaptable in short iteration periods in modern enterprises. In this paper, we describe the challenges of integrating ontology services in information systems in the context of Smart City Ecosystems.
