Knowledge Modeling
(OBDM-OBDA) Ontology-based data management (OBDM) and
Ontology-based Data Access (OBDA) are promising directions for
addressing the challenge of providing organizations with unified access to
their data and an effective governance of them, as well as the managing of
inconsistency in the data sources. The key idea of these approaches is to
resort to a three-level architecture, constituted by the ontology, the data
sources, and the mapping between the two. The ontology is a formal
description of the domain of interest, and is the heart of the whole system.
The data sources are the repositories used in the organization by its various
processes and applications. The mapping layer explicitly specifies the
relationships between the domain concepts on the one hand and the data
sources on the other hand. Such a mapping is not only used for the
operation of the information system, but also for documentation purposes.
The importance of this aspect clearly emerges in some of the projects in
which Domenico Fabio Savo has been involved in, such as the one with the
Ministry and Economy and Finance, and with Telecom Italia, where the
information about data was widespread among separate pieces of
documentation that are often difficult to access and rarely conforming to
common standards. He has also investigated optimization techniques for
ontology based data access.
(Inconsistency Management in ontologies) It is well known that
inconsistency causes severe problems in logic-based Knowledge
Representation. In particular, since an inconsistent logical theory has no
model, it logically implies every formula (ex falso quodlibet) and, therefore,
traditionally reasoning services over an inconsistent ontology become
meaningless. There are many approaches for devising inconsistency-
tolerant inference systems, originated in different areas, including Logic,
Artificial Intelligence, and Databases. Domenico Fabio Savo has faced this
problem by adopting an approach that is especially inspired by those to
consistent query answering in databases in which the strategy would be to
leave the ontology unchanged, but to try to extract only consistent
information from it. Specifically, he has published some results regarding
this problem, and he has deeply investigated it in his Ph.D. thesis, where he
has presented four new semantics for consistent query answering over
ontologies and OBDA systems.
(Ontology Update) While query answering are problems that have been
intensively studied in literature for quite some time, and for which practical
solutions and prototypes have been presented, the update problem has
been often overlooked and, when faced, dealt with only theoretically. In his
studies, Domenico Fabio Savo has focused on the identification of
approaches to the update problem that could be applied in practice.
Specifically, he has deeply investigated the problem of updating ontologies
at the extensional level in his Ph.D. thesis. He has also begun studying the
problem of updating the ontology with intentional information and the
problem of updating OBDA specifications. In this last case, the problem is
much more complex, since we must consider mappings and data sources.
(Knowledge Modeling) Knowledge Modeling (KM) is an important
research field related to Knowledge Representation. KM consists in the
application of logic and ontology to the task of constructing computable
models for some domain. In his career, Domenico Fabio Savo has had the
chance to face the problem of modeling complex domains by means of
ontologies, typically expressed in OWL or logics of the DL-Lite family.
Specifically, during the MPS-GCC and MPS-AOG projects, he dealt with this
issue in bank domains, in the MEF-I and MEF-II projects in the public debt
domain, in the TELECOM-I project in a telecommunications domain, and in
the Optique and Bloomberg projects with oil wells and oil transportation
domain. He is currently working in the ACI project with modelling driving
licenses and tax domains. He has co-designed and co-developed Graphol,
a new visual modeling language for OWL ontologies.

Participation to Research Projects and Experimentations
Year Project description
Since 2016 ACI – Automobile Club d’Italia. This is a joint project with ACI Informatica and OKKAM
srl. The project aims to develop an integrated information management system
exploiting semantic technologies. In particular, the approach adopted in the project
is based on the Ontology-based data management (OBDM) paradigm. In the project,
he participates in the following activities:
Ontology development;
Data source analysis;
Mapping development.
2012 – 2016
Optique Project - Scalable End-user Access to Big Data. Optique is a project financed
by the Seventh Framework Program (FP7) of the European Commission under Grant
Agreement 318338. The aim of the project is to bring about a paradigm shift for data
access by providing a semantic end-to-end connection between users and data
sources; enabling users to rapidly formulate intuitive queries using familiar
vocabularies and conceptualizations; seamlessly integrating data spread across
multiple distributed data sources, including streaming sources; exploiting massive
parallelism for scalability far beyond traditional RDBMSs and thus reducing the
turnaround time for information requests to minutes rather than days. In the project,
he participated in the following activities:
Management activities for the Sapienza group participation to the project;
Research activities concerning ontology and mapping management;
Design and implementation of the ontological modeling of the Norwegian Oil
Well Use-Case used in the project.
2013 Bloomberg – Bloomberg L. P. – New York, USA. The objective of the project is to
explore the use of the Ontology Based Data Access (OBDA) technology as a means
of supporting semantic integration and intelligent querying of that data. In the
project, he participated in the following activities:
Knowledge gathering over the domain of interest;
Ontology development;
Data source analysis;
Mapping development.
2012 MEF-II – Italian Department of Treasury (Ministero dell’Economia e delle Finanze). This
project aimed to extend the work done during the MEF-I project. In the project, he
participated in the development of the ontology.
2011 – 2014 TELECOM-I – Telecom Italia. This project aims to develop an ontological modeling
of the Telecom Italia domain, more specifically the domain of the communication
network, and experimenting the semantic technologies for accessing data in the
scope of this domain. In the project, he participated in the following activities:
Knowledge gathering over the domain of interest;
Ontology development;
Data source analysis;
Mapping development.
2011 MEF-I – Italian Department of Treasury (Ministero dell’Economia e delle Finanze). This
was a pilot project that aimed to experiment the Mastro System for ontology-based
data access in the scope of the public debt activities. In the project, he participated
in the following activities:
Knowledge gathering over the domain of interest;
Ontology development;
Data source analysis;
Mapping development.
2010 – 2013 ACSI (Artifact-Centric Service Interoperation). ACSI was an EU STREP Project, funded
within the European Union 7th Framework Programme Objective 1.2 "Internet of
Services, Software and Virtualisation" (FP7-ICT-2009-5-Objective 1.2). The aim of the
project was to extend the state-of-the-art verification and synthesis techniques to
incorporate data along with processes, and to develop the next generation of process
mining research by generalizing it to handle data along with processes. In the project,
he participated in the following activities:
Research activities concerning the extension of classical description logics to
modeling time evolution;
