1. A method to generate a plurality of derivative information sources for a software development platform, the method comprising:
- defining an ontology to provide a logic-based representation formalism of each of a plurality of original information sources, the plurality of original information sources having heterogeneous representation formalisms;
transforming the plurality of original information sources to the ontology; and
automatically generating the plurality of derivative information sources from the ontology.

Abstract
Methods and systems to generate derivative information sources, from original information sources, use an ontology that provides a logic-based representation formalism of each of a number of original information sources, the original information sources having heterogeneous representation formalisms. The original information sources are transformed to the ontology. A number of derivative information sources, corresponding to the original information sources, may be automatically generated from the ontology.
