Introduction

The Publishing Workflow Ontology (PWO) is a simple ontology written in OWL 2 DL for the characterization of the main stages in the workflow associated with the publication of a document (e.g. being written, under review, XML capture, page design, publication to the Web).

Classes

actionc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/spar/pwo/Action

An event with at least one agent that is participant in it and that is linked to a workflow execution and to a step of the related workflow description.
has super-classes
action and actionc
happenedop some time intervalc
is in range of
involves actionop

stepc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/spar/pwo/Step

An atomic unit of a workflow, that may be characterized by a starting time and an ending time, and may be associated with one or more events. A workflow step usually involves some input information, material or energy needed to complete the step, and some output information, material or energy produced by that step. In the case of a publishing workflow, a step typically results in the creation of a publication entity, usually by the modification of another pre-existing publication entity, e.g. the creation of an edited paper from a rough draft, or of an HTML representation from an XML mark-up.
has super-classes
taskc
is task defined inop only workflowc

has next stepop, has stepop

workflowc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/spar/pwo/Workflow

A sequence of connected steps, representing a sequence of publishing operations undertaken by agents. A workflow may be seen as an abstract model of real work.

IRI: http://purl.org/spar/pwo/WorkflowExecution
