HOME: Hybrid Ontology Mapping Evaluation Tool for Computer Science Curricula

Abstract

This paper presents a hybrid ontology mapping tool for evaluating the standard of computer science subjects against the Thailand Qualification Framework for Higher Education (HQF: HEd). This can improve the standard of curriculum of universities in Thailand with higher accuracy and enable the decrease of processing time. Three ontologies have been designed: course, TQF: HEd and the standard curriculum of computer science. They were used for comparing course contents by applying a combination of ontology mapping techniques (semantic-based using extended Wu & Palmer’s algorithm and structure-based using SKOS features). Test with the sample data show that the tool based on a hybrid ontology mapping worked sufficiently well and can inform the efforts for curriculum improvement
