Polovina, Simon: von Rosing, Mark; Laurier, Wim (2014) "Conceptual Structures in LEADing and Best Enterprise Practices", Graph-Based Representation and Reasoning (21st International Conference on Conceptual Structures, ICCS 2014 Iași, Romania, July 27-30), Hernandez, Nathalie; Jäschke, Robert; Croitoru, Madalina (Eds.), LNAI 8577, Springer Cham Heidelberg New York Dordrecht London, 293-298. Abstract: Conceptual Structures, namely Conceptual Graphs (CGs) and Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) are beginning to make an impact in Industry. This is evidenced in LEAD as it seeks to provide its 3100+ industry practitioners in many Fortune 500 and public organisations with capabilities that can handle ontology and semantics. The existing ontology and semantics work in LEAD, supported by the Global University Alliance, is described and how CGs, FCA and their tools (e.g. CoGui, CG-FCA) enhance this endeavour.

Editor's Notes
- Title Page
- As explained on following slides
- As a picture (i.e. their diagram) – practice and practices, hence practice(s) bringing them together. Note Ontology and Semantics, taking them out of academe and into said practices

- Definitions of Enterprise, from Star Trek to us as individuals as well as corporates, government bodies, vendors, standard bodies… e.g. Lego, Canadian Govt., SAP, OMG… and LEAD itself of course
- Enterprises are not like buildings etc. as you can’t actually touch them, but they are very real! Assets are burdens, involve cost and risk and need to add benefit (“sweat the assets”) Winchester Mystery House is an example of _good_ architecture as it was to spec!
- Don’t reiterate definitions of models here; just point to dictionary.com etc. Rather focus is on Box’s & Albert’s pertinent comments!
- STOP is a piece of metal cut into a hexagonal shape with red painted middle and white borders and S T O P written on it, but it means more to us! Objects create signs so we need to KPI the objects not the signs!
- A definition of semantics – objects (concepts, entities) related to each other through relations, all set in context (a domain)
- Example of objects/concepts/entities linked by relations
- Contexts can be represented through categorisations, classifications, schemas, namespaces, Peirce’s cuts, … And there is Moore’s core-context, where everything else is context… [Not shown]
