Special Issue Applied Ontology out now:
Ontological Foundations of Conceptual Modelling
Guest-edited by Giancarlo Guizzardi and Terry Halpin

The objective of this issue is to collect innovative and high-quality
research contributions regarding the role played by formal ontology,
philosophical logics, cognitive sciences and linguistics to the
foundations of conceptual modeling. The issue should be of interest to
several academic communities, including primarily the communities of
applied ontology and conceptual modeling, but also the ones of
database and information systems design, knowledge engineering,
semantic interoperability and information integration, enterprise
modeling, agent and object orientation, software engineering (in
particular domain and requirements engineering), natural-language
processing, business rules and model-driven engineering.

The applied ontology editorial team is very proud of this special
issue and wants to share some contents with you. Click on the links

Ontology without costs.

About Applied Ontology
Applied Ontology (Editors-in-Chief: Nicola Guarino and Mark Musen) is
a journal whose focus is on information content in its broadest
sense. It focuses on two broad kinds of content-based research
activities: ontological analysis and conceptual modeling. The former
includes any attempt to investigate the nature and structure of a
domain of interest using rigorous philosophical or logical tools; the
latter concerns the cognitive and linguistic structures we use to
model the world, as well as the various analysis tools and
methodologies we adopt for producing useful computational models.

Applied Ontology (ISSN 1570-5838) will be published in 1 volume of 4
issues in 2009 (Volume 4). Institutional subscription (print and
online): €443 / US$640 (including postage and handling). Check
www.iospress.nl for information on individual subscription prices.
