What
On-To-Knowledge is about
Efficient knowledge management has been identified
as key to maintaining the competiveness of organisations.
Ontologies have been developed in the knowledge engineering
discipline as a means to share and reuse knowledge.
The On-To-Knowledge project will develop methods and
tools and employ the full power of the ontological approach
to facilitate knowledge management. The On-To-Knowledge
tools will help knowledge workers who are not IT specialists
to access company-wide information repositories in
an effcient, natural and intuitive way.

OIL
as a result of the On-To-Knowledge-Project
One of the results of the project is the Ontology Inference
Layer OIL.
Mission statement:
Ontologies provide a shared and common understanding
of a domain that can be communicated across people
and application systems. Therefore, they will play
a major role in supporting information exchange processes
in various areas. However, a prerequisite for such a
role is the development of a joint standard for specifying
and exchanging ontologies. The Ontology Inference Layer
OIL is a proposal for such a standard.
