A General Markup Framework for Integrity and Derivation Rules

We propose a general markup framework for integrity and derivation rules (R2ML). Rule concepts are defined with the help of MOF/UML, a subset of the UML class modeling language proposed by the Object Management Group (OMG) for the purpose of \u27meta-modeling\u27, i.e. for defining languages conceptually on the level of an abstract (semi-visual) syntax. From these MOF/UML language models we can obtain concrete markup syntax by applying a mapping procedure for generating corresponding languages from parameterized DTDs

Modelling Contracts Using RuleML

This paper presents an approach for the specification and implementation of e-contracts for Web monitoring. This is done in the setting of RuleML. We argue that monitoring contract execution requires also a logical account of deontic concepts and of violations. Accordingly, RuleML is extended to cover these aspects

Towards Sharing Rules Between OWL/SWRL and UML/OCL

The paper presents a metamodel-driven model transformation approach to interchanging rules between the Semantic Web Rule Language along with the Web Ontology Language (OWL/SWRL) and Object Constraint Language (OCL) along with UML (UML/OCL). The solution is based on the REWERSE Rule Markup Language (R2ML), a MOF-defined general rule language, as a pivotal metamodel and the bidirectional transformations between OWL/SWRL and R2ML and between UML/OCL and R2ML. Besides describing mapping rules between three rule languages, the paper proposes the implementation by using ATLAS Transformation language (ATL) and describes the whole transformation process involving several MOF-based metamodels, XML schemas, EBNF grammars
