Thesis: An Ontology-Based Approach for Integrating i* variants by Karen Najera
Our aim in this thesis is to investigate the role of the use of ontologies to realize the integration of i* variants, propitiating the understanding of the i* variants and the understanding of their models by means of a common language established for the ontologies. |
Thesis: Enriching organizational models through semantic annotation by Blanca Vazquez
We propose an approach to enrich an organizational model, described in the variants i*, Tropos and Service-oriented i*, with semantic annotation taken from domain ontologies. This allows the standardization of concepts, clarifying the label of the elements and achieving a common understanding in the community. |

Supporting i* model integration through an ontology-based approach (iStar11)
Abstract: The i* framework is widely used for organizational modeling. It has been applied in di?erent application domains, hence many i* vari- ants have been proposed. Sharing information and integration of modelsexpressed in i* variants imply interoperability problems. The interoperability has been approached... |
Enriching Organizational Models through Semantic Annotation (CIIECC 2013)
Abstract: Semantic annotation of visual models is useful to provide a precise, formal meaning to model elements, thus making them more understandable to people, enabling a deeper analysis of requirements and automated reasoning. We present an approach for the enrichment of visual models of an organization, with annotations ... |

Generating Ontologies through Organizational Modeling (SEKE 2013)
Abstract: Ontologies are recognized as important component of information systems supporting business processes within and cross organizations. At modeling time, they contribute identifying key elements from business processes; at development time, their structure can be translated automatically ... |
Towards supporting business services discovery through the integration of organizational models with ontologies (CIbSE 2013)
Abstract: We argue that the integration of organizational models with ontologies is useful to discover business services because we consider that a domain concept that integrated different elements of the model could represent new business services to the organization. These additional services could improve the performance... |

An Ontology-Based Methodology for Integrating i* Variants (iStar13)
Abstract: Many variants of the i* Framework have been developed since its definition. For instance, i* -based modeling languages have been proposed for agent-oriented and service-oriented software development, for modeling risk, security requirements, and so on. The integration of models expressed in i* variants poses interoperability ... |
Extension and integration of i* models with ontologies (iStar13)
Abstract: Currently, i* is one of the most well founded organizational modelling techniques. Its main feature is the expressibility to represent intentional social relations among stakeholders. In i* models, each modeling component is described explicitly through text labels. However, the process of labeling model elements is usually ... |
