Abstract: This article presents a study of several methodologies for building ontologies. It focuses on approaches where Protégé tool is used to develop an ontology appropiate for a defined purpose. The most relevant aspects are identified with the objective of managing the good practices when solving particular domain challenges. The study discusses various characteristics of ontology development methodologies based on Protégé and analyses their specific constraints. An important outcome of the study is that the evolution of software engineering processes influences the evolution of ontology development approaches. The global and agile aspects of the development activities are among the common properties of both. The main contributions described in this article are related to finding out a variability in the development activities and their flow of control, practical illustration of processes of manual or automated classification in an ontology, how ontologies are utilized in applications. The study aims to act as an introductory guide for ontology developers in their beginning stage.
