e/BORO Method

Information
has gloss	eng: The BORO Method is a simple, repeatable process for developing formal ontologies. The BORO Method takes an extensional approach to ontology development. The advantage of BORO over other methods is that its grounding in physical reality means that, if followed to the letter, the method will always produce the same ontology given the same inputs. This makes it particularly powerful for comparing multiple data-sources for semantic matches/mismatches and for re-engineering multiple legacy systems into a coherent whole (either as a new monolithic system, or as a method for designing federation of existing systems). Although BORO produces an ontology (information science) in the very strictest sense of the term, it does not produce the type of ontology (information science) that computer scientists would use for reasoning and inference. Instead, BOROs purpose is to improve the quality of information and information models, to integrate multiple information sources and extract hidden semantics.
