We present the design and implementation of a semantics-enabled service discovery framework in the data Grids for process and product development using numerical simulation and knowledge discovery (SIMDAT) Pharma Grid, an industry-oriented Grid environment for integrating thousands of Grid-enabled biological data services and analysis services. The framework consists of three major components: the Web ontology language (OWL)-description logic (DL)-based biological domain ontology, OWL Web service ontology (OWL-S)-based service annotation, and semantic matchmaker based on the ontology reasoning. Built upon the framework, workflow technologies are extensively exploited in the SIMDAT to assist biologists in (semi)automatically performing in silico experiments. We present a typical usage scenario through the case study of a biological workflow: IXodus.
我们展示了一个用于流程和产品开发的数据网格中启用语义的服务发现框架的设计与实现，该数据网格使用数值模拟和知识发现（SIMDAT）制药网格，这是一个面向行业的网格环境，用于集成数千个启用网格的生物数据服务和分析服务。该框架由三个主要组件组成：基于网络本体语言（OWL）-描述逻辑（DL）的生物领域本体、基于OWL网络服务本体（OWL-S）的服务注释以及基于本体推理的语义匹配器。基于该框架，工作流技术在SIMDAT中得到广泛应用，以协助生物学家（半）自动进行计算机模拟实验。我们通过一个生物工作流IXodus的案例研究展示了一个典型的使用场景。
