Abstract

Rules are widely recognized to play an important role in the SemanticWeb. They are a critical technology component for the early adoption and applications of knowledge-based techniques in e-business, especially enterprize integration and B2B e-commerce. This includes, in particular, markup languages for integrity and derivation rules, such as the Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL)[5] that has recently been proposed as an extension of the Web ontology language OWL[4]. Rules also play an important role in information systems engineering, especially in the specification of functional requirements where business rules are the foundation for capturing and modeling business application logic.
