Abstract
This paper reports on the first results of the Ontology Workpackage of the HUMACS/PSIM project which started on April 1st under the IMS/EU 5th Framework Program. After summarizing guidelines for ontology development, the PSIM choices regarding domain and related knowledge areas are presented. A draft ontology configuration schema is presented. It reflects findings from the area of enterprise reference architecture and integration methodology. The position and impact of other knowledge areas, i.e., ergonomy, socio-technical systems design, IT tools and procedures, are addressed informally.
