Developing a Web-Based Application using OWL and SWRL
نویسندگان
چکیده
Data integration is central in Web application development because these applications typically deal with a variety of information formats. Ontology-driven applications face the additional challenge of integrating these multiple formats with the information stored in ontologies. A number of mappings are required to reconcile the variety of formats to produce a coherent overall system. To address these mappings we have developed a number of open source tools that support transformations between some of the common formats encountered when developing an ontology-driven Web application. The Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL) is a central building block in these tools. We describe these tools and illustrate their use in the development of a prototype Web-based application.

An Executive Approach Based On the Production of Fuzzy Ontology Using the Semantic Web Rule Language Method (SWRL)
Today, the need to deal with ambiguous information in semantic web languages is increasing. Ontology is an important part of the W3C standards for the semantic web, used to define a conceptual standard vocabulary for the exchange of data between systems, the provision of reusable databases, and the facilitation of collaboration across multiple systems. However, classical ontology is not enough ...
متن کاملUsing SWRL and OWL to Capture Domain Knowledge for a Situation Awareness Application Applied to a Supply Logistics Scenario
When developing situation awareness applications we begin by constructing an OWL ontology to capture a language of discourse for the domain of interest. Such an ontology, however, is never sufficient for fully representing the complex knowledge needed to identify what is happening in an evolving situation – this usually requires general implication afforded by a rule language such as SWRL. This...
متن کاملSWRL2SPIN: A tool for transforming SWRL rule bases in OWL ontologies to object-oriented SPIN rules
SWRL is a semantic web rule language that combines OWL ontologies with Horn Logic rules of the RuleML family of rule languages, extending the set of OWL axioms to include Horn-like rules. Being supported by the Protégé ontology editor as well as by popular rule engines and ontology reasoners, such as Jess, Drools and Pellet, SWRL has become a very popular choice for developing rule-based applic...
متن کاملOWL rules: A proposal and prototype implementation
Although the OWL Web Ontology Language adds considerable expressive power to the Semantic Web it does have expressive limitations, particularly with respect to what can be said about properties. We present SWRL (the Semantic Web Rules Language), a Horn clause rules extension to OWL that overcomes many of these limitations. SWRL extends OWL in a syntactically and semantically coherent manner: th...
متن کاملCombining SWRL rules and OWL ontologies with Protégé OWL Plugin, Jess, and Racer
The presentation concerns a draft implementation with Protégé OWL Plugin for SWRL, based on the RDF concrete syntax of the SWRL proposal. A first prototype of a SWRL Tab Widget has been achieved. It is a bridge between Protégé OWL, Racer, and Jess, intended to help reasoning with SWRL rules combined with OWL ontologies. A small example is given including an OWL ontology representing the family ...
