N1 - Funding Information: This work documents results from two projects: The research has received funding from the EU KDT Joint Undertaking under grant agreement n° 101007312 ?project Semantically Connected Semiconductor Supply Chains - SC3) and by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy of Germany in the project Cognitive Economy Intelligence Plattform für die Resilienz wirtschaftlicher Ökosysteme - CoyPu ?project number 01MK21007[A-L]). We have faced in that work is the identification of appropriate workflows and tools to achieve a common understanding of the domain and its formal representation. Our advanced approach is based on refining two-fold mapping process where data are transformed into visual primitives. It increases flexibility in using visual primitives to merge domain and experts knowledge. It can be merged though the SC3 platform in a way that anyone can create environment that supports other team members in understanding domain. Different type of visualization helps all team members to understand their own responsibilities. In this work, we describe the use of the Semantically Connected Semiconductor Supply Chains ?SC3) Ontology Platform in this challenge. The SC3 is a Support Action funded by the European Commission. This paper is structured as follows: First, we introduce the SC3 Ontology Platform, focusing on the visualization of ontologies for different groups of experts. We then describe a survey we created for usability analysis of the platform within CoyPu. Finally, we discuss the results of this survey. ?CoyPu), is a BMBF funded project. In CoyPu, complex economic challenges in crises are analyzed, evaluated and researched for automated solution approaches. To this end, the project is working on an intelligent platform for integrating, structuring, networking, analyzing and evaluating heterogeneous data from economic value networks as well as the industry environment and social context. This intelligent web based platform will support the resilience of economic ecosystems. To achieve this goal the CoyPu project resorts and combines Semantic Web technologies with Artificial Intelligence analysis approaches. One important part of the CoyPu project therein is the COY ontology development. The COY ontology main goal is to serve as an overall project communication platform, by defining critical concepts and their interrelations. In CoyPu, we see this communication platform as a critical component for effective and efficient information exchange between the multiple actors in a supply chain. The development of the COY ontology is a joint undertaking between domain experts and knowledge workers without expertise in economic ecosystems. One of the main challenges that

N2 - One of the major challenges in developing ontologies is to efficiently merge domain knowledge and expert knowledge to enable efficient and effective work on formal modelling of the domain in focus. This paper outlines the current state of developments in the Semantically Connected Semiconductor Supply Chains (SC3) project and its application in the BMBF-funded Cognitive Economy Intelligence Platform for Economic Ecosystem Resilience (CoyPu) project. We are using the SC3 Ontology Platform in CoyPu to promote effective information sharing among the various stakeholders in the development of the ontology. Thus, the application of SC3 Ontology Platform is used to ensure that the knowledge of non-knowledge workers (domain experts) and knowledge workers come together efficiently. This paper first introduces the CoyPu project and the current ontology development; then the SC3 Ontology Platform and its main components are presented. The paper concludes with the analysis of a first usability evaluation.
