  2. DAML-S Briefing DAML-S Web Services Coalition presented by: Sheila A. McIlraith Knowledge Systems Laboratory (KSL) Stanford University http://www.daml.org/services/

  3. DAML-S Web Services Coalition* CMU: Massimo Paolucci, Terry Payne, Katia Sycara BBN: Mark Burstein Nokia: Ora Lassila Stanford KSL: Sheila McIlraith, Honglei Zeng SRI: Jerry Hobbs, David Martin, Srini Narayanan Yale: Drew McDermott Manchester: Ian Horrocks * Founded February, 2001

  4. What is DAML-S? • DAML-S: A DARPA Agent Markup Language for Services • DAML+OIL Ontology for (Web) services • AI-inspired markup language: • tailored to the representational needs of Services • expressive power • well-defined semantics • ontologies support reuse, mapping, succinct markup, ... • Release of DAML-S version 0.5 June,2001 • http://www.daml.org/services/

  5. DAML-SL DAML-L (Logic) DAML-S (Services) DAML+OIL (Ontology) RDFS (RDF Schema) RDF (Resource Description Framework) XML (Extensible Markup Language) Layered Approach to Language Development The first major application of DAML+OIL

  6. DAML-S Objectives Provide an upper ontology for describing properties & capabilities of (Web) services in an unambiguous, computer interpretable markup language. Desiderata: • the ontology of Web services • ease of expressiveness • enables automation of service use by agents • enables reasoning about service properties and capabilities

  7. Automation Enabled by DAML-S • Web service discovery • Find me a shipping service that transports goods to Dubai. • Web service invocation • Buy me 500 lbs. powdered milk from www.acmemoo.com • Web service selection, composition and interoperation • Arrange food for 500 people for 2 weeks in Dubai. • Web service execution monitoring • Has the powdered milk been ordered and paid for yet?

  8. Who Will Use DAML-S? • Web service providers (e.g., Amazon, Intelink, United Airlines) •  mark up their services • 3rd party Web page designers (e.g., Web Designers) •  mark up clients’ services • 2nd-ary Web service providers (e.g., Travelocity, My Simon) •  exploit others’ services to create add-on services •  use/write agent software to find/execute/compose other services • Web service end users (e.g., Joe, Analysts) •  characterize their needs •  use/write agent software to find/execute/compose services

  10. Service Profile High-level description of a service and its provider • description of service (human readable) • specification of functionalities service provides • functional attributes (requirements and capabilities) Profile used for • populating service registries • automated service discovery • matchmaking

  11. Service Profile AcmeShipping name Acme Shipping Ltd. physicalAddress 3333 Travis Road Manchester, NH webURL www.acmeship.com email weship@acme.com ...

  12. Service Profile A service is provided by an Actor (service provider) E.g., AcmeBookShipping is provided by AcmeShipping

  14. Upper Ontology of Services

  15. Service Model

  16. Process Model Service Model“How does it work?” Each service is conceived as simple or composite process (event/action) Associated with each service is a set of inputs, outputs, preconditions and effects(function and action metaphor) Composite processes are compositions of simple or other composite processes in terms of constructs such as sequence, if-then-else, fork,... Data flow and Control flow should be described for each composite service A black box and glass box view are given of each composite service Process model used for: • (automated) Web service invocation, composition, interoperation, monitoring (potentially together w/ grounding).

  17. Function/Dataflow Metaphor Input: Output: • customer name • origin • destination • weight • pickup date • ... • confirmation no. • ... Acme Book Truck Shipment Y truck available + valid credit card ? N • failure notification • …

  18. Acme Book Truck Shipment AI-inspired Action/Process Metaphor Output: • confirmation no. • ... Input: • customer name • origin • destination • pickup date • ... • goods at location • if successful • credit card debited... Effect: Y truck available + valid credit card ? Preconditions: N • knowledge of • the input • ... • failure notification • … Output: <no effect> Effect:

  22. Upper Ontology of Services

  23. Service Grounding (under development) • Specification of service access information • specifies communication protocols, transport mechanisms, etc. • E.g., SOAP, HTTP forms, Java RMI, RPC, etc.

  26. Related Work • Related Industrial Initiatives • UDDI • ebXML • WSDL • .Net • XLANG • Biztalk, e-speak, etc • These XML-based initiatives are currently complementary to DAML-S. • DAML-S intends to build on top of these efforts exploiting increased expressiveness, semantics, inference that enables automation. • Related Academics Efforts • Process Algebras (e.g., Pi Calculus) • Process Specification Language (Hoare Logic, PSL) • Planning Domain Definition Language (PDDL) • Business Process Modeling (e.g., BMPL)

  27. Tools and Applications • DAML-S provides a means of describing Web services. • It’s just another DAML+OIL ontology •  all the tools and technologies that exist for DAML+OIL are relevant • Some DAML-S Specific Tools and Technologies: • Extending DAML-S: DAML-S Coalition (security, symbol grounding, …) • Discovery, Matchmaking, Agent Brokering: CMU, SRI (OAA), Stanford KSL • Automated Web Service Composition: Stanford KSL, BBN/Yale/Kestrel, • CMU, MIT, Nokia, SRI • DAML-S Editor: Stanford KSL, SRI, CMU (profiles), Manchester • Process Modeling Tools & Reasoning: SRI, Stanford KSL • Service Enactment /Simulation: SRI, Stanford KSL

  28. Challenges • Technical Issues • DAML+OIL not sufficient for the process model • Laundry list of unaddressed & resolved issues • (SRI & CMU will mention some this afternoon) • (some will be mentioned in Breakout tomorrow) • Connecting with Industry Initiatives & with User Community • need to connect DAML-S with industry initiatives • need people in industry (& in DAML) to mark up services with DAML-S • concern: industry’s lack of adoption of RDF • Tools availability • DAML+OIL reasoner • DAML-S editor

  29. Challenges • Technical Issues • DAML+OIL not sufficient for the process model • Laundry list of unaddressed & resolved issues • messages, synchronization, conversation protocols, exceptions and transaction, • multiple participants, scripts, unification/binding, constraints, ontologies of processes, • service grounding, ... • Connecting with Industry Initiatives & with User Community • need to connect DAML-S with industry initiatives • need people in industry (& in DAML) to mark up services with DAML-S • concern: industry’s lack of adoption of RDF • Tools availability • DAML+OIL reasoner • DAML-S editor
