BP. 7: Interact with the designated community and manage user-centric development. (D2.5) #51

Open GCoen1 opened 3 years ago

GCoen1 commented 3 years ago

A semantic artefact needs to reflect the actual semantic model/ conceptualisation embraced and endorsed by the community that uses it. As science and language changes, changes and updates are inevitable in the long run or content drift will happen in the semantics. This has to be acknowledged and managed. As others (re)use semantic artefacts to enable interoperability there has to be even more clear processes for managing the necessary communication and negotiations.

Semantic artefacts have to be regarded as services to the community in their own right, not only service components, especially if they are reused (used by several systems or solutions). Thus ownership as well as continuous user centred development should be ensured.

Interaction and communication with the designated community has to be organised and managed as a process. The community should receive training and guidance in using and developing the semantic artifact.
