Abstract

Cross-organizational interoperability and coordination are major challenges to Virtual Organization(VO) applications. In this paper, a semantic Web enabled multi-agent platform for logistic VO supporting is proposed. The issue of extending OWL with multi-attribute constraints for VO modeling is addressed. A constraint rule language SWOCRL is proposed which is based on OWL and SWRL with constraint extension and class-scoped restriction. Important VO concepts such as organizations, activities, resources and their logistic specializations are described with OWL plus SWOCRL.

This work is funded by National Science Foundation of China under grant No. 60373057.
