Summary/Abstract: This article focuses on the challenges regarding building ontologies and ontology-based tools with the purpose of using them in the architectural analysis of cyber-physical systems (CPSs). This research explores the main knowledge of CPSs architecting considering that the recent maturation of the existent standards about description, processes and evaluation of software intensive systems architecture can support better a systematic understanding and knowledge sharing to develop ontologies and smart tools based on ontologies. A tool that uses ontology knowledge aids the analyst to conduct a complex analysis method providing him/her more relevant and consistent guidance and more complete results. The ontology that formalize the consensus knowledge codified in standards and of the architecture analysis methods could be integrated in an application tool that becomes more trustable and efficient.
