SWRL (Semantic Web Rule Language) is a proposal for a Semantic Web rules-language, combining sublanguages of the OWL Web Ontology Language (OWL DL and Lite) with those of the Rule Markup Language. The specification was submitted in May 2004 to the W3C by the National Research Council of Canada, Network Inference (since acquired by webMethods), and Stanford University in association with the Joint US/EU ad hoc Agent Markup Language Committee.

  • SWRL (Semantic Web Rule Language) is a proposal for a Semantic Web rules-language, combining sublanguages of the OWL Web Ontology Language (OWL DL and Lite) with those of the Rule Markup Language. The specification was submitted in May 2004 to the W3C by the National Research Council of Canada, Network Inference (since acquired by webMethods), and Stanford University in association with the Joint US/EU ad hoc Agent Markup Language Committee. Compared with DLP (Description Logic Programs), another relatively recent proposal in the Semantic Web community for integrating rules and OWL, SWRL takes a diametrically opposed integration approach. DLP is the intersection of Horn logic and OWL, whereas SWRL is (roughly) the union of them. In DLP, the resultant language is a very peculiar looking description logic and rather inexpressive language overall. It’s hard to see the restrictions are either natural or satisfying. Contrariwise, SWRL retains the full power of OWL DL, but at the price of decidability and practical implementations. Rules are of the form of an implication between an antecedent (body) and consequent (head). The intended meaning can be read as: whenever the conditions specified in the antecedent hold, then the conditions specified in the consequent must also hold.
  • SWRL (Semantic Web Rule Language) est un langage de règles pour le web sémantique, combinant le langage OWL-DL et le langage RuleML (Rule Markup Language). En comparaison avec DLP (Description Logic Programs), une autre proposition relativement récente de la communauté web sémantique, permettant d'intégrer des règles et OWL, SWRL prend une approche d'intégration diamétralement opposée. DLP est l'intersection de la logique de Horn et d'OWL, tandis que SWRL est (approximativement) l'union des deux. Pour DLP, le langage résultant est une logique descriptive d'une forme inhabituelle et peu expressive. Au contraire, SWRL garde la puissance d'OWL DL, mais au prix de la décidabilité et des implémentations concrètes.
