Network management, unified information modeling, semantic interoperability, ontology, concept lattices, formal concept analysis
With the development of future Internet, it is of great significance to study how to realize unified management information modeling, in order to avoid a lot of repetitive work and standardize information modeling in network management domain. This paper discusses the problem from the ontology point of view and introduces the theory of concept lattices into the research on semantic management information modeling, which includes a) establishing an ontology-driven framework for semantic management information modeling, b) building unified management information modeling ontology based on concept lattices, and c) generating semantic models for network management information modeling using the theory of concept lattices.
