Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for generating ontologies. In one embodiment, techniques are provided for automatically generating an ontology based upon input information. The input information may, for example, be in the form of XSD, XML, WSDL, or WSRP, etc. The automatically generated ontology may be encoded in OWL or other RDF-compliant language. A set of inference rules may also be automatically generated using the input information. The automatically generated ontology and the set of inference rules may be stored in a database for further processing.
