Expressing WS Policies in OWL
Bijan Parsia, Vladimir Kolovski, James Hendler · 2005
In this paper, we present two translations of the Web Service Policy Framework (WS-Policy) into OWL-DL. First, we provide an introduction to WS-Policy and we argue the benefits of using OWL and RDF to express web service policies. Then, we provide two translations from WS-Policy to OWL, one of them representing policies as instances, and the second one as classes. Finally, we provide a survey of existing web policy languages and a general idea of their expressivitiy.
