Versioning System for Distributed Ontology Development

Abstract

Common Cyber Environment Representation (CCER) is an ontology for describing operationally relevant, and technicallyrepresentative, cyber range event environments. Third-party ontology developers, as well as in-house ontology developers, contributed toCCER Ontology. Since the cyber range environments continue to evolve and expand, we expect the CCER Ontology also to evolve andexpand. Therefore, an easy to comprehend versioning scheme that will support a systematic ontology evolution is needed. This documentdescribes the requirements for such a versioning scheme, and its design. This document also describes how to assign version numbers underdifferent ontology evolution situations, and provides guidelines for evaluating the impact of the version changes.
