Abstract
This report discusses the design of rule markup languages on the basis of RDF, OWL, and the Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL), as well as on the basis of the RuleML proposal. Our aim is to develop a general Web rule language framework. Rule concepts are defined with the help of MOF/UML, a subset of the UML class modeling language proposed by the Object Management Group (OMG) for the purpose of 'meta-modeling', i.e. for defining languages conceptually on the level of an abstract (semi-visual) syntax. From these MOF/UML language models we can obtain a concrete markup syntax by applying a mapping procedure for generating corresponding XML schemas.
