Five novel ontological descriptions that demonstrate how to address issues such as conflicts in terminology are presented. The ontology sketches presented in this paper not only provide a vocabulary for the consensual discussion of the port integration decision and to capture the relevant factors and measurement variables that can be used to manage and uncover new knowledge via data mining. %I Knowledge Management and Acquisition for Smart Systems and Services %T Towards Management of the Data and Knowledge Needed for Port Integration: An Initial Ontology %R 10.1007/978-3-319-13332-4_14 %~ Intellectum
