Ontology Design and Conceptualisation Sample Clauses

Ontology Design and Conceptualisation. As mentioned above, ontology engineering is able to contribute in simplifying the complexity in automating communications and risk data during contract- ing. The ontology helps to: 1. clarify the relevant concepts involved in the automation, 2. identify relations among the concepts, 3. inform decision making by highlighting technological opportunities and risks, 4. guide the development of algorithms and collection of relevant data sources, and 5. offer a flexible and adjustable technological infrastructure to support con- tract automation. To design an ontology, requirements need to be gathered. They are gathered based on the case study and a literature review. Taking into consideration the requirements, we arrived at the Onassis Ontology. It is visualised (1) in a sim- plified form in Figure 2.1 and (2) as a scientific ”puzzle” in the Appendices (see Appendix 1C 15) or in Github (with clear explanations), where all details are connected and visualised 16. Figure 2.1 The ontology retraces the interactive process of asking questions and giving answers between a legal expert and a contractor (see Figure 2.1 right upper half) leading to the collection of relevant communication data. The data are processed by a legal expert who relates them to the relevant contract risks (see left upper side). The process that we aim to frame for automated methods (and that ultimately will lead to a formal contract) will result in an ontological conceptualisation (see Figure 2.1). In the Onassis Ontology we see the starting points of the above-mentioned interactive process between the legal expert and the contractor. The legal expert writes a question for the contractor who has previously selected a specific scope Figure 2.1 for the contract (in the ”U” sign denotes that a predicate connects with two or more objects). By replying to the question, the contractor provides an answer. The answer includes information that can be extracted to update (1) Figure 2.1 one or more variables of a paragraph (see right under half). Each (2) paragraph is part of (3) a section, whereas multiple sections form (4) a contract (see Figure 2.1, lower half). The variable, paragraph, and section follow a numerical order within the constituent parts of the contract. The paragraphs of a section (i.e., the section itself) are grouped under standardised topics and are regulated by legal rules. The contract contains a number of agreements, which include not exclu- sively the offering, acceptance and the...
