An approach for ontology-based research and recommendation on systems engineering projects

Recommendation systems (RS) have dramatically evolved these past few years, generating more and more accurate results and developing innovative filtering methods. A huge breakthrough was the integration of ontologies into their recommendation process. It integrated the domain's knowledge into its reasoning process, thus overcoming the limitations of the conventional RS. The main purpose of this paper is to explore the application of ontology-based RS within critical infrastructure projects implementing the systems engineering or model-based engineering approach.
