Demonstrating the use of AI Planning and Policy Analysis in the Composition of Web Service Descriptions

I-X/I-Plan

• O-Plan and I-X Web Service Composition Demonstrations
• Demonstration of SOAP interface to I-X acting as a web services composition tool
• I-X Release and Download
• Other O-Plan and I-X Demonstrations

• KPAT Java Web Start demonstration (you need to have Java Web Start installed; comes with standard Java distribution)
• The demonstration shows KAoS GUI working on the active policy management repository and agent system allowing to examine active agents, and to define and manage policies on them.
