Adrian Paschke, Rehab Alnemr
2010 International Web Rule Symposium  
Online Reputation management systems compute, manage, and provide reputation about entities which act on the Web. An important research question is how such a reputation management system can be build for the Semantic Web. In this paper we contribute with a reputation management system based on distributed rule agents, which uses Semantic Web rules for implementing the reputation management functionalities as rule agents and which uses Semantic Web ontologies for representing simple or complex

We demonstrate a Semantic Web reputation management system by means of an e-Commerce and a Social Semantic Web 3.0 use case, which is using an ontology based reputation object model and a rule-based inference service agent middleware, called Rule Responder. As contribution our solution ensures efficient automation, semantic interpretability and interaction, openness in ownership, fine-grained privacy and security protection and easy management of semantic reputation data on the Web.
