OWL-S and Agent-Based Systems
Multiagent Systems, Artificial Societies, and Simulated OrganizationsExtending Web Services Technologies(2004)
摘要
Over the last decade, research in agent-based systems (ABS) has spawned a multi-faceted field, addressing a broad range of
challenges and generating a varied array of technical approaches. Web service technologies, in contrast, have arisen in a
more incremental fashion, with more modest aims, although the vision statements associated with Web services sometimes overlap
significantly with those of ABS. Work on Semantic Web services aims to provide richer specifications of services, so as to enable fuller, more flexible automation of service
provision and use, support the construction of more powerful tools and methodologies, and promote the use of semantically
well-founded reasoning about services. This chapter provides an overview of OWL-S, a Semantic Web services ontology, and discusses
its connections with work on agent-based systems. We argue that OWL-S takes some significant, although limited, steps towards
a foundation for the deployment of agent technologies on the Web.
