Resumo: Ontologies have become the subject of ever increasing interest in several areas. Beyond its philosophical roots, it has been used broadly in research fields related to systems development. Within the scope of automated information systems, the use of ontology has two main goals: it can be used as a component of a system or as a reference. This reference is a kind of comparison standard employed to evaluate the capacity of the model underpinning the system to represent the world. The present article explores the latter application, discussing the usefulness of ontologies in conceptual modeling processes. After the contextualization of the research and of some problems related to conceptual modeling of information systems, we present ontologies used as references, in addition to related initiatives. We discuss the relevance of this subject with regards to Information Science, interfaces and the potential for interdisciplinary research. We conclude by highlighting the importance of the Information Science disciplines in addressing issues related to deficient modeling and to lack of systems integration. We hope to contribute to the interchange between different areas, as well as suggest new perspectives for the work of Information Science professionals.

Além de suas origens filosóficas, tem sido amplamente utilizadas em campos de pesquisa relacionados ao desenvolvimento de sistemas. No âmbito dos sistemas de informação automatizados, uma ontologia tem duas aplicações principais: pode ser usada como um componente do sistema, ou como uma referência, um padrão de comparação para avaliar a representatividade do modelo subjacente ao sistema. O presente artigo explora o segundo tipo de aplicação, discutindo a utilidade das ontologias em processos de modelagem conceitual. Após contextualizar a pesquisa e alguns problemas da modelagem conceitual de sistemas de informação, apresentam-se ontologias utilizadas como referência, bem como iniciativas relacionadas. Discute-se a pertinência do assunto na Ciência da Informação, interfaces e possibilidades de pesquisa interdisciplinar. Conclui-se sobre a relevância da formação em Ciência da Informação para abordar questões de modelagem deficiente e de falta de integração entre sistemas. Espera-se contribuir para o diálogo entre diferentes áreas, bem como para sugerir novas perspectivas de atuação para profissionais de Ciência da Informação. Departamento de Ciência da Informação – UFSC2010-09-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/eb/article/view/1518-2924.2010v15n30p3210.5007/1518-2924.2010v15n30p32Encontros Bibli: revista eletrônica de biblioteconomia e ciência da informação; Vol. 15 No. 30 (2010); 32-56Encontros Bibli: revista electrónica de bibliotecología y ciencias de la información.; Vol. 15 Núm. 30 (2010); 32-56Encontros Bibli: revista eletrônica de biblioteconomia e ciência da informação; v. 15 n. 30 (2010); 32-561518-2924reponame:Encontros Bibliinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/eb/article/view/1518-2924.2010v15n30p32/19528Copyright (c) 2010 Maurício Barcellos Almeida, Viviane Nogueira Pinto de Oliveira, Kátia Cardoso Coelhohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlmeida, Maurício BarcellosOliveira, Viviane Nogueira Pinto deCoelho, Kátia Cardoso2023-07-11T14:51:39Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/10987Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/eb/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/eb/oaiencontrosbibli@contato.ufsc.br||portaldeperiodicos.bu@contato.ufsc.br1518-29241518-2924opendoar:2023-07-11T14:51:39Encontros Bibli - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
