OWL-S2UDDI Converter converts OWL-S profile descriptions to corresponding UDDI advertisements, which can then be published in any UDDI registry. The mapping between OWL-S and UDDI is based the mapping described in [1]. This project is part of the OWL-S tools suite developed at CMU for more details regarding the OWL-S tools suite visit http://www.daml.ri.cmu.edu/tools

User Guide

OWLS2UDDI converter takes either an OWL-S Profile url or an OWL-S API's ProfileList object as an input and returns a vector of BusinessEntity objects. The following code snippets shows usage for the converter.

Using OWL-S Profile url:

OWLSUDDIMapping owlsMapping = new OWLSUDDIMapping();
Vector beVector = owlsMapping.map("http://www.daml.org/services/owl-s/1.1/BravoAirProfile.owl");

Using ProfileList:

OWLSProfileParser owlsProfileParser = new OWLSProfileParser(true);
OWLSProfileModel profileModel = owlsProfileParser.read("http://www.daml.org/services/owl-s/1.1/BravoAirProfile.owl");
ProfileList profilesList = profileModel.getProfileList();

OWLSUDDIMapping owlsMapping = new OWLSUDDIMapping();
Vector beVector = owlsMapping.map(profilesList, url);

Note: The OWLS2UDDI converter overloads the above methods with an extra BusinessEntity name parameter. These methods are provided because there is not element in OWL-S Profile which corresponds to BusinessEntity name.
