Abstract
The technical challenges associated with the development and deployment of ontologies have been subject to a number of research initiatives since the beginning of the nineties. By comparison the economics of ontology engineering remains a poorly exploited field, this underdevelopment having an impact on the adoption of ontology-driven technologies beyond the boundaries of the academic community. The work presented in this paper aims at the alleviation of this situation. We introduce a method for measuring the benefits of ontologies based on a multiple gap model for user information satisfaction analysis. Together with cost models such as ONTOCOM, it can be used to give an account of the economic value of ontologies.
