An ontological approach for a recommendation system of a requirement tool: the case of a national standard framework for hospital design
Shahin Sateei, Mattias Roupé, Mikael JohanssonChalmers university of technology, SwedenDOI: 10.35490/EC3.2022.205Abstract: There is a need to facilitate cross-project learning in hospital projects. To do this, the Swedish national healthcare project frame and database, PTS (Program for Technical Standard), has been created to provide a framework for Swedish regions when conducting hospital projects. However, the fragmented information currently available and overall structure makes it difficult to embed knowledge and requirements for cross-project learning. In this paper we use an ontological framework to review the current structure of PTS and also propose a conceptual information-structure for machine-readable functional and spatial requirements that can be utilized in a recommendation system for hospital room layout.
