本体已经在科学和商业领域中使用了一段时间，并且链接数据的扩散意味着潜在作者的数量和范围将显着增加。然而，使用Web本体语言（OWL）的本体是复杂的人工制品：创作过程不仅需要应用领域的知识，还需要编程和逻辑技能。到目前为止，还没有系统的尝试来了解现有工具的有效性，或探索用户真正需要建立成功的本体。在这里，我们解决这一不足，提出了从15个本体论作者的访谈研究的见解。我们确定了作者报告的问题，以及他们用来解决这些问题的策略。我们将数据映射到一组设计建议，这些建议描述了未来的工具如何支持本体创作。一个关键的挑战是处理信息过载：提高用户的能力，导航，填充和调试大型本体将彻底改变工程过程，并开放本体创作到新一代的用户。
Ontologies have been employed across scientific and business domains for some time, and the proliferation of linked data means the number and range of potential authors is set to increase significantly. Ontologies using the Web Ontology Language (OWL) are complex artefacts, however: the authoring process requires not only knowledge of the application domain, but also skills in programming and logics. To date, there has been no systematic attempt to understand the effectiveness of existing tools, or explore what users really require to build successful ontologies. Here we address this shortfall, presenting insights from an interview study with 15 ontology authors. We identify the problems reported by authors, and the strategies they employ to solve them. We map the data to a set of design recommendations, which describe how tools of the future can support ontology authoring. A key challenge is dealing with information overload: improving the user's ability to navigate, populate and debug large ontologies will revolutionise the engineering process, and open ontology authoring up to a new generation of users.
