A multi-disciplinary simulation framework based on semantic-SOA

The advanced manufacturing of complex products needs a more advanced distributed simulation application system. Semantic-SOA is becoming a key enabler for multi-disciplinary collaborative simulation and environment for supporting automatic integrated development. For meeting the challenges of Semantic-SOA applications in continuous/discrete systems and dynamic interoperation, we proposed a framework for developing flexible collaboration. In this paper, we present a DDL (Dynamic Description Logic) based framework to improving the existing Semantic-SOA. The extension of OWL-S with DDL allows us to implement clear representation of dynamic information and simulation activities. Furthermore, some new definitions of DDL are proposed to fit our simulation systems. In the end, a demo system is implemented.
