| Abstract: | In recent studies, ontology related concepts have been introduced into FIPA ACL content language to convey information for agent communication. However, these works have only applied ontology-based knowledge representation in communication message and then demonstrated the advantage of this association. In fact, although ontology can represent semantic implications needed for decidable reasoning support, it has no mechanism for defining complex rule-based representation to support inference. The motivation of this study is to address this issue by developing a semantic-based infrastructure to integrate Semantic Web technologies into ACL message contents. This semantic-based infrastructure defines two different semantic frameworks: the three-tier knowledge representation framework for message content and the Multi-layer Ontology Architecture for content language. The former is developed based on Semantic Web stack to support ontology-based reasoning and rule-based inference. The latter is adopted to develop a Lightweight Ontology-based Content Language (LOCL) to describe agent communication messages in an unambiguous and computer-interpretable way Jena reasoner is used in an application scenario that exploits agent communication with LOCL as content language, OWL as ontology language, and SWRL as rule language to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed infrastructure.
