摘要：This paper describes the development of the srBPA ontology, which is a formal ontology that conceptualizes the elements of the Riva-based business process architecture and the relationships between them. This ontology was instantiated using the UWEs CEMS faculty administration case study in an attempt to assess the correctness and the usefulness of the developed ontology. The assessment revealed that the srBPA ontology contributes remarkably as a source of business knowledge describing the process architecture of an organization to be semantically extracted and reused. Furthermore, in this paper we show how this ontology can be used to semantically identify services for an SOA-based system.
