Introduction –
Ontology
Formal representation of terms and relations for our
knowledge domain.
A basis for inference in analyzing examined properties
– ontology facilitates data search and inferencing
processes, essential for advanced DSS.

Motivation and objective
There are needs for …
reliable information available on the Web,
keeping the system up-to-date,
integrating information from diverse sources,
enhancing the system by Semantic Web,
accessing the system from smartphones.
Objective:
to integrate
a smart client app with a Web-based
DSS, embedded in the Semantic Web infrastructure,
for
designing and managing handling, drying and storage of
agricultural products.

Visual Studio 2013 (ASP.NET) and C#,
tools
supporting
ontology
development,
storage and visualization,
tools supporting smart app development in
C# for WP and Android platforms.

o
A system supporting analysis and management of
drying and storing agricultural products was designed
as a Semantic Web-based system supported with smart
client app.
o
During the software development process it was a
critical factor to conform to software engineering
standards with respect to testing quality-in-use metrics.
