Representation of Petri net with OWL DL ontology

TLDR
An ontology approach for representing Petri nets with ontologies is proposed, i.e., some key features of Petrinets are translated into classes, properties and axioms of OWL DL ontologies.
Abstract
With the wide utilization of Petri nets, many researchers suggest that Petri nets should be reused and shared. Emerging the Semantic Web technologies, such as ontologies, can play an important role in this scenario. In this paper, we propose an ontology approach for representing Petri nets. Firstly, we propose a complete formal definition of OWL DL ontologies. Then, Petri nets are introduced and a formal definition of Petri nets is given. On this basis, we propose an approach for representing Petri nets with ontologies, i.e., we translate some key features of Petri nets into classes, properties and axioms of OWL DL ontologies.

Exploiting Semantic Web Technologies to Develop OWL-Based Clinical Practice Guideline Execution Engines

TL;DR: Three CPG execution engines based on OWL 1 DL, OWL 2 DL and OWL2 DL + semantic web rule language (SWRL) are developed based on semantic web reasoning capabilities to execute OWL-based computerized CPG and show the efficiency, technical performance and medical correctness of the execution engines using a range of CPG.

A literature overview of knowledge sharing between Petri nets and ontologies

TL;DR: This paper gives a comprehensive literature overview of knowledge sharing between Petri net models and ontology models to satisfy the obvious need and discuss the knowledge sharing from two aspects: the different knowledge representation approaches of ontology to represent and reason PetriNet and issues of constructing Petri Net from ontology.
