摘要

Policy-based management technology which is used for managing enterprise-wide networks and distributed systems is getting more and more attention.Policy conflict detection and solution is a difficulty in this field.In this paper,we present a novel method of policy conflict detection based on SWRL rules.First,we construct a policy ontology model,and represent the policies with Web Ontology Language (OWL).Then the SWRL roles used to detect conflict is presented.Finally,an exarhple is shown to illustrate how to use our method to detection the conflicts in the managed system,the feasibility and the validity of our proposed method are proved out.
