Differing perspectives, processes, methods, tools, vocabularies, and standards are problems that arise in this context. We present an approach to support bringing together disciplines based on a common body of knowledge (CBK), in which knowledge from different disciplines is collected, integrated, and structured. The novelty of our approach is twofold: first, it introduces a CBK ontology, which allows one to semantically enrich contents in order to be able to query the CBK in a more elaborate way afterwards. Second, it heavily relies on user participation in building up a CBK, making use of the Semantic MediaWiki as a platform to support collaborative writing. The CBK ontology is backed by a conceptual framework, consisting of concepts to structure the knowledge, to provide access options to it, and to build up a common terminology. To ensure a high quality of the provided contents and to sustain the community's commitment, we further present organizational means as part of our approach. We demonstrate our work using the example of a Network of Excellence EU project, which aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners from services computing, security and software engineering.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchwittekSchmidtBeckersetal.2012, author = {Schwittek, Widura and Schmidt, Holger and Beckers, Kristian and Eicker, Stefan and Faßbender, Stephan and Heisel, Maritta}, title = {A Common Body of Knowledge for Engineering Secure Software and Services}, series = {2012 Seventh International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security}, volume = {NESSoS, ICT-2009.1.4 Trustworthy ICT, Grant No. 25698}, booktitle = {2012 Seventh International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Prague}, isbn = {978-1-4673-2244-7}, doi = {10.1109/ARES.2012.31}, pages = {499 -- 506}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The discipline of engineering secure software and services brings together researchers and practitioners from software, services, and security engineering. This interdisciplinary community is fairly new, it is still not well integrated and is therefore confronted with differing perspectives, processes, methods, tools, vocabularies, and standards. We present a Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) to overcome the aforementioned problems. We capture use cases from research and practice to derive requirements for the CBK. Our CBK collects, integrates, and structures knowledge from the different disciplines based on an ontology that allows one to semantically enrich content to be able to query the CBK. The CBK heavily relies on user participation, making use of the Semantic MediaWiki as a platform to support collaborative writing.
