WSMO / WSMX contributions to DIP

14.6.2004 2

WSMO – DIP WP1

• Building inference engine processing WSMO descriptions

14.6.2004 3

WSMO – DIP WP2

• WSMO alignments:– Alignment with WSMO D18 "Language Neutral API“– Building WSMO compliant ontology browser– Survey on known ontology versioning tasks & problems

relating to WSMO• Ontology versioning scenario in the context of SWS• Requirements for an ontology versioning tool• Addresses the requirements of the WSML scenario of D24

– Incorporate ontology versioning capabilities into the WSMO ontology

– Prototype of the WSMO ontological modelling for the web

14.6.2004 4

WSMO – DIP WP2

• Possible future stages of development:– Interacting with WSML-enabled systems by

reading ontologies formalized in WSML– Mapping services (expressed in various

languages such as WSDL) to ontological models– Integration with a WSMX execution environment

• FZI provides a proposal for extending the ontology language with rules. This part should also be aligned with WSML as far as this is possible

14.6.2004 5

WSMO+WSMX – DIP WP3

• Modelling ontologies in WSMO format:– Business data ontology– Business process and protocol ontology– Goal ontology and repository

• WSMX may help on– Framework for semantic service description– Integration aspects of the service ontology and

web service description

14.6.2004 6

WSMO/WSMX-O – DIP WP4

• Expected to be aligned with WSMO in the Service Usage work package both directly and via the work of WP3

14.6.2004 7

WSMO/WSMX-O – DIP WP5

• Definition of mediation from WSMO can be helpful for service mediation

14.6.2004 8

WSMO/WSMX-O – DIP WP6

• There are currently ongoing discussions to define a DIP architecture with a WSMO / WSMX basement and other features requested by DIP

WSMO/WSMX-O – DIP WP6 - architecture

14.6.2004 11

WSMO – DIP WP7

• WSMO considered as one of the current standardization efforts / initiatives in area of SWS

14.6.2004 12

WSMO – DIP WP9

• WP9 s committed to the Standard version of WSMO– There will be two implementations of the Mock-up

for our use case, one of which will use OU’s IRSII – IRSIII is forthcoming and will be WSMO

compatible

14.6.2004 13

WSMO – DIP WP10

• Case Study - don't provide technology but uses DIP and others technology

• WSMO-Std. is targeted for usage. The mock-up in summer will use some of the WSMO frame structures

14.6.2004 14

WSMO – DIP WP12

• The work evolving in this WP might discover that market needs are matched or not matched by WSMO (this is not yet apparent)

14.6.2004 15

WSMO – DIP WP14

• WP 14 has concerning WSMO the following position:  – Will use the WSMO tutorial slides as part of the

background workshop (OU - part of the WSMO tutorial team giving a tutorial in Bulgaria, September and of the proposal submitted to ISWC in Japan)

– WSMO will also be a component of a number of DIP tools - the OU's main tool IRS will become WSMO compliant over this summer
