Chris-- This is a great collection--thanks! I will forward separately to you some papers about the work we are doing with the KAoS policy and domain services that seem relevant that you may want to include on the site. Below is an abstract from a paper we submitted to Policy 03. Please keep us informed of future developments, and if anyone else on the list has questions or related interests, please let me know. Cheers, Jeff ***** In this paper, we describe our initial implementation of the KAoS policy and domain services. While initially oriented to the dynamic and complex requirements of software agent applications, the services are also being adapted to general-purpose grid computing and web services environments as well. The KAoS services rely on a DAML description-logic-based ontology of the computational environment, application context, and the policies themselves that enables runtime extensibility and adaptability of the system, as well as the ability to analyze policies relating to entities described at different levels of abstraction. An online theorem-prover is used for policy disclosure, conflict detection, and harmonization, and for reasoning about domain structure and concepts. In future versions, DAML will be replaced by OWL, and description-logic will be supplemented with the possibility of rule-based representation.
