Representing e-commerce rules via situated courteous logic programs in RuleML

چکیده

We give an overview of current efforts to standardize e-business rules knowledge representation (KR) in XML as part of the Semantic Web. We focus especially on the design approach and criteria of RuleML, an emerging standard that we co-lead. We discuss the issues of standardization and Webizing which RuleML addresses. We extend, for the first time, RuleML’s definition from the ordinary logic programs KR to situated courteous logic programs (SCLP), an expressively general KR that supports prioritized conflict handling and procedural attachments for actions and queries. We give an overview of our prototype SweetRules, (Semantic WEb Enabling Technology – Rules component), a set of tools which enable, for the first time, communication and inferencing of e-business rules represented in SCLP RuleML. We illustrate SCLP RuleML by giving example rulesets from the realm of e-commerce business policies in supply chain management. 1

SweetJess: Inferencing in Situated Courteous RuleML via Translation to and from Jess Rules

We describe the innovative design of our prototyped SweetJess tool for RuleML inferencing. Our first contribution is to give a new, implemented translation from a broad but restricted case of SCLP RuleML into Jess rules, and an inverse translation from a broad but further restricted case of Jess rules into SCLP RuleML. SCLP stands for the Situated Courteous Logic Programs knowledge representati...

SweetDeal: Representing Agent Contracts with Exceptions Using Semantic Web Rules, Ontologies, and Process Descriptions

We address the problem in automated knowledge-based e-contracts of how to represent exception handling provisions – which in many (if not most) natural language contracts constitute the majority of the contract's volume. We make three main novel contributions. First, we newly extend the previous SweetDeal e-contracting approach to incorporate ontology knowledge, specifically ontologies about bu...
