Ontologies, are explicit specifications of conceptualisations, and as such
serve as a backbone of many Information Systems (ISs) as knowledge bearing
artefacts representing mainly domain knowledge. As the use of ontologies in
several kinds of ISs increased in the recent years significantly, the question
of how to maintain these ontologies, gained more importance.
Although, there are no sophisticated methods available yet to support
all the aspects of change management for ontologies, it surely is an active
research field. Most of the work has been done under the titles of Ontology
Evolution and Versioning. Some methods emerged, which address particular
aspects related to the change management of ontologies.
This report gives an overview of the state of the art of research done so
far in the fields of Ontology Evolution and Versioning.
