This study proposed a decision support framework for developing educational administrative regulations. Generally, during the process of drawing up regulation, one would find one of the three problems; structure of clauses is incomplete, content is inconsistent, terms are not unified. Regulations with these problems will lead to the puzzlement at later stage, and will prove very efficient. It is extremely troublesome for users to read and search with these problems in regulations, because they could cause the regulation to be ambiguous or equivocal, and could produce an irreconcilable conflict between regulations. It could also lead to user''s misunderstanding or obscurity to the original meaning of the regulation. This research applies Thesaurus, UML, OWL and the ontology to develop a decision support framework for assisting the development of educational administrative regulations. This research applies Ontology to analyze the knowledge concepts of the educational administrative regulation and identifies the relationship among regulation sentences. We use Thesaurus to build a classified hierarchy for knowledge items, UML to further modify the semi-structured regulations into a structural form, and ontology to develop knowledge hierarchy of the structural form. The ontology language which we use is OWL. It has built-in semantic expressions for us to establish complicated relationships among knowledge items. The system is capable of assisting regulation developers to reduce those problems above.
