TL;DR

A set of four complementary metrics grounded in graph theory and information theory that enable the identification of architectural anti-patterns (orphan modules, unstable modules, excessive coupling) and guide targeted refactoring operations are proposed.

WiseOWL 2.0 : A Methodology for Evaluating Ontological Descriptiveness and Semantic Correctness for Ontology Reuse and Ontology Recommendations

Ontologies support shared meaning across Semantic Web applications, but selecting an appropriate ontology for reuse remains difficult because existing candidates often differ in documentation quality, semantic clarity, structural connectivity, and logical soundness. Reuse decisions are therefore frequently based on fam...

Towards Ontology-Guided Requirements Quality Analysis: an LLM-Based Tool for EHR Systems

Systematic assessment of software requirements against standardized quality models remains a challenge in requirements engineering (RE), particularly in large-scale, critical, and regulated information systems. Large language models (LLMs) have been extensively studied in many RE tasks; however, grounding LLM-assisted...

CQ4OE: A benchmark for assessing LLM-assisted ontology generation from competency questions

Ontology generation from Competency Questions (CQs) is a central yet labor-intensive phase of Ontology Engineering. While large language models (LLMs) offer promising automation capabilities, current evaluations remain fragmented. Task formulations are heterogeneous, gold standards often lack fine-grained CQ provenance...

Ontology driven cross language design smell detection through semantic reasoning

Design smells are structural flaws that, if not detected early, can impair software quality and increase maintenance costs. Traditional detection approaches are language-specific and rely on low-level metrics, making them ineffective for heterogeneous, multilingual systems. This paper presents Ontology-Driven Design De...
