概念建模研究综述

摘要

Conceptual modeling is the activity of creating models. Models that describe problems are independently from the technology and strategy used to solve the problem. In the past few decades, a large number of conceptual modeling methods and tools have emerged. Many theories such as ontology linguistics and cognitive science enhance the concept modeling theoretical basis. Ontology based conceptual modeling got full attention. Hie development of conceptual modeling, conceptual model language, ontology-based conceptual modeling and quality evaluation of the conceptual model have been studied.%概念建模是指创建概念模型的行为,这些模型用来描述问题,与具体用于解决问题的技术和策略独立无关.在过去数十年中,大量概念建模方法和工具纷纷涌现,许多理论如本体论、语言学和认知学的引入,增强了概念建模的理论基础.基于本体的概念建模研究得到了充分的重视.本文对概念建模的发展、概念建模语言、基于本体的概念建模以及概念模型的质量评估进行系统的阐述.
