ZAPATA JARAMILLO, Carlos Mario; GIRALDO, Gloria L.  y  URREGO GIRALDO, Germán A.. Ontologies in software engineering: approaching two great knowledge areas. Rev. ing. univ. Medellín [online]. 2010, vol.9, n.16, pp.91-99. ISSN 1692-3324.

Ontology concepts have been traditionally linked to knowledge engineering and software engineers have not applied them to solve problems of this area. It is necessary that software engineers use these ontologies, since they provide a common language, which can contribute to the solution of some common software engineering problems like difficulties in communication between the analyst and the interested person in order to define a system requirements, the low components re-use, and scarce automatic generation in code generation, among others. In this paper, a first encounter between ontologies and software engineering by means of a state-of-the-art analysis related to the use of ontologies in several phases of software development life cycle is presented.

Palabras clave : Ontologies; software development lifecycle; software engineering; knowledge engineering.
