IPAS: An Ontology Based Approach to Government to Business Service Selection
Gianluigi Viscusi, Matteo Palmonari · 2008
In this paper we present the evolution of IPAS, a semantic repositories based approach to government to business (G2B) service selection. IPAS enables a business perspective over service provision, supporting businesses in the value-driven service selection. This perspective is addressed in the paper by exploiting expressive semantic representations and reasoning. We describe an ontology for representing relevant semantic properties of services and processes, together with a prototype that implements the algorithm for value-based service selection.
