The Semantic Web has reached a level of maturity that allows RDF and OWL to be adopted by commercial software vendors. Products that incorporate these standards are being used to h...
Defeasible Logic is a rule-based non-monotonic logic with tractable reasoning services. In this paper we extend Defeasible Logic with nested rules. We consider a new Defeasible Log...

Enforcing rich policies in open environments will increasingly require the ability to dynamically identify external sources of information necessary to enforce different policies (...
In this paper we evolve a rule based approach to SLA representation and management which allows separating the contractual business logic from the application logic and enables aut...
In the same way as the “static” Semantic Web deals with data model and language heterogeneity and semantics that lead to RDF and OWL, there is language heterogeneity and the ne...
