Abstract:
The problems of creating Lifecycle Ontologies are discussed in the paper. The Ontology of Lifecycle (both as domain and upper ontology), in contradistinction to Lifecycle of Ontology, still remains underdeveloped. The interest in these problems is related to the need in various lifecycle representations and coverings for constructing advanced Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems. Such PLM-systems are seen as a keystone for Enterprise Engineering (EE). First of all, some definitions and viewpoints on EE are discussed. Authors suggest an original pyramid of disciplines for EE. Moreover, the main goal is to develop a trans-disciplinary, synergistic approach to EE based on the integration of Ontological Engineering, Lifecycle Modeling and Knowledge Management. It requires the modeling and co-ordination of (at least) three lifecycles: product (complex technical system) lifecycle, enterprise lifecycle and knowledge lifecycle. The problems of lifecycle modeling are faced.
