SEMI-AUTOMATED SOFTWARE INTEGRATION - An approach based on logical inference

Mikhail Kazakov, Habib Abdulrab

2004

Abstract

The paper addresses a problem of semi-automated enterprise application integration. More close we discuss a problem of integration of numerical simulation components in the area of manufacturing engineering information systems. We propose an approach that is based on annotation of software interfaces with formal logical specifications. Logical inference procedure is used to choose appropriate enterprise software component depending on client requests. First, we discuss the problem and difficulties of integration of numerical simulation solvers and manufacturing engineering solutions in general. This is followed by description of the methodology of semi-automated integration based on use of description logics.
