From OWL-S Descriptions to Petri Nets
نویسندگان
چکیده
While OWL-S advertisements provide a rich (ontological and behavioural) description of Web services, there are no tools that support formal analyses of OWL-S services. In this paper we present a translator from OWL-S descriptions to Petri nets which makes such analyses possible thanks to the many tools available for Petri nets.

Petri Net based approach for merging ontologies in web service composition scenario
Ontologies are being used for construction of semantically rich service descriptions. In case of Web service composition, techniques for planning, composing, editing, reasoning and analyzing of these descriptions are required. It’s necessary to resolve semantic interoperability between services to achieve Web services coordination and collaboration. Matchmaking and merging of service descriptio...
متن کاملPetri net ontology
The paper presents the Petri net ontology that enables sharing Petri nets on the Semantic Web. Previous work on formal methods for representing Petri nets mainly defines tool-specific descriptions or formats for model interchange. However, such efforts do not provide a suitable description for using Petri nets on the Semantic Web. This paper uses the Petri net UML model as a starting point for ...
متن کاملModeling and Performance Evaluation of Energy Consumption in S-MAC Protocol Using Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets
One of the features of wireless sensor networks is that the nodes in this network have limited power sources. Therefore, assessment of energy consumption in these networks is very important. What has been common practice has been the use of traditional simulators to evaluate the energy consumption of the nodes in these networks. Simulators often have problems such as fluctuating output values i...
متن کاملSoccer Goalkeeper Task Modeling and Analysis by Petri Nets
In a robotic soccer team, goalkeeper is an important challenging role, which has different characteristics from the other teammates. This paper proposes a new learning-based behavior model for a soccer goalkeeper robot by using Petri nets. The model focuses on modeling and analyzing, both qualitatively and quantitatively, for the goalkeeper role so that we have a model-based knowledge of the ta...
متن کاملFormal Methods for Service Composition
Current approaches to service composition range from industrial standards (like BPEL and OWL-S) to formal methods (like Petri nets and process algebras). In this paper, we survey several such approaches and compare them on the basis of a selected set of characteristics (like compensations, trust and performance). Our conclusion is that formal methods, including tool support, are ideal to assist...
