Abstract [eng] Creating business vocabularies and rules is a difficult process, but ontologies is a different case with its strict structure policies and specialised tools with logic and syntax checkers. As a result of this there‘s a wider range of ontology examples created. So it‘s wise not to start creating business rules and vocabularies from scratch, but take an existing ontology and transform it to business vocabulary and rules. But there is no reliable solution how to achieve this transformation. This masters thesis examines the possibility of transforming a particular subject area ontology into SBVR business vocabularies and rules and describes the proposed methodology for transforming OWL2 described ontology into SBVR. The methodology allows the transformation of OWL syntax elements without individuals. Activity diagrams and functional equations were used for describing the methodology in formal manner. The created methodology was successfully implemented in a prototype tool. A conclusion was drawn from the experimental results, that if the ontology element set does not exceed the defined rules set and the ontology itself is not ambiguous, the created methodology can be held as correct and can be used in business and information system creation processes.
