Algorithm 3

Steps for construction model.

Step  1. Determine the scope of the ontology.

Step  2. Consider reusing (parts of) existing ontologies.

Step  3. Enumerate all the concepts you want to include.

Step  4. Define the arrangement of these concepts.

Step  5. Define properties of the concepts.

Step  6. Define facets of the concepts such as cardinality, required values and so forth.

Step  7. Define instances.

Step  8. Check the consistency of the ontology
