Abstract

We present an approach to specify and execute agents on Read-Write Linked Data that are given as Guard-Stage-Milestone workflows. That is, we work in an environment of semantic knowledge representation, reasoning and RESTful systems. For specifying, we present a Guard-Stage-Milestone workflow and instance ontology. For executing, we present operational semantics for this ontology. We show that despite different assumptions of this environment in contrast to the traditional environment of workflow management systems, the Guard-Stage-Milestone approach can be transferred and successfully applied on the web.

Note that a client’s (polling, state-based) application logic can, without changes, benefit from HTTP/2 server push (events): such specific events have been standardised to allow a server to update a client’s cached state representations.

Turtle allows for abbreviating URIs, where a colon separates the abbreviating prefix from the local name. The example uses the empty prefix, which denotes http://purl.org/gsm/vocab#. We refer to http://prefix.cc/ for other abbreviations.
