Abstract

The first step to turn into reality the vision of the Semantic Web is to provide web contents (data and functionality) in a format that can be processed by software agents. However, this change will not be achieved until users count on methods and techniques that help them in its development. For this reason we provide in this paper a methodological solution based on the Web Engineering discipline. We propose to extend a Web Engineering method with an Ontology model in order to specify, at the modelling level, the system data and functionality that are going to be exposed for the use of external applications. Moreover, by the application of a set of transformation rules we (1) build a draft of this Ontology model from the structural and behavioural models defined in the OOWS approach and (2) generate the equivalent representation of the Ontology model in a particular semantic web language.

This work has been developed with the support of MEC under the project DESTINO TIN2004-03534 and cofinanced by FEDER.
