Motivations

“Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration” (T.A. Edison)

Innovation as a practice that captures, acquires, manages and diffuses knowledge with the aim to create new knowledgeKnowledge enables creativity by permitting associations and linkages that otherwise are difficult to be discovered

Objective and Proposal

Objective: Smart access and reasoning over enterprise documentsDocOnto (Documents Onto) framework

Semantic structures for describing docs UBL-like approach (eDoCreator editor)Linked Data principles

Reasoning Services operating on the DocOnto at schema and instance level Part of the BIVEE Prod and Innov. KR (PIKR)

BIVEE Business Innovation Modelling Framework

Four wavesCreativityFeasibilityPrototypingEngineeringEach wave characterized by the production and consumption of certain docs (e.g., Proposed Idea, Feasibility Study)

UBL (Universal Business Language)adoption

UBL/CCTS has the notion of building blocks (e.g., name, address)

generic semantics and purposere-usable in different contexts

Three types of CCBasic (e.g., name)Association (e.g., relationships between docs)Aggregate (e.g., documents)

Customization method (eDoCreator tool)

12/03/2013 8

Linked Data adoption

Linked Data principles Standard description and publication of data (RDF and URI)Standard way of accessing data (HTTP)Linking resources/data among them

Reusing of vocabularies (e.g., Dublin Core, FOAF)Support interoperability and openness

Reasoning facilities over annotated docs

Query, to retrieve pieces of knowledge which exhibit some given properties Semantic similarity search (SemSim)Compliance Checking with respect to business policies and internal regulations (e.g., Each Innovation Report needs to be composed by a Project Proposal and a Market Analysis)

Conclusions and Outlook

UBL as a standard customization approach for documents representation familiar in a business contextLinked Data as standard principles for publishing data and vocabularies

Future worksElaboration of documents structuresPropose innovation docs as extension of standard UBL docs
