Abstract
As highlighted in the previous chapters, in order to make effective and efficient use of an ontology, it is important to understand how a given ontology is being used by the users and its level of adoption. The next phase of the OUSAF, after the identification phase, is therefore the investigation phase, in which the analysis of the use of domain ontologies on the Web takes place.
