Expert   Knowledge   as   Methodology. Although most ontology methodologies have been highly influenced by the existing standards and methodologies regarding software and systems design, few of the revised methodologies have been deeply influenced by the standards and methods set towards a human-centred perspective to systems (ontology) design, domain expert-centred design. Most ontology methodologies may involve domain experts and users at some stages of the development process (mainly knowledge acquisition and evaluation), although none of the above-mentioned methodologies describes a complete expert-centred perspective towards ontology engineering. In general, no reference is made towards ensuring that the knowledge modelled in the ontology is, in fact, shared amongst the experts or professionals of the domain. Human-centred software design and user validation are highly standardised processes which include participation in and evaluation of the general development of software, systems and products, the analysis of their usability, the documentation provided and the quality of their use. In this project, we take into account the detailed modelling guidelines from Noy and XxXxxxxxxx (Ontology Development 101) and Methontology, but include expert-centred and empirically-oriented methods towards professional legal knowledge acquisition, and usability (shareability) evaluation towards the construction of the ROPA Ontology. The methodological steps will follow the general cyclic iterative and incremental approach: specification of requirements, knowledge acquisition, conceptualization, formalization, evaluation and refinement.
