Data Service Agreements: Toward a Data Supply ChainData Service Agreement • July 9th, 2004
As organizations move toward using web technology to share data, the barriers go beyond the well known challenges of semantic interoperability. Our work proposes and illustrates the problem of establishing and maintaining data supply chains in the face of evolution and decentralized control. We explore agreements for data services, identifying obligations of provider and consumer, and opportunities beyond those for arbitrary services. Examples illustrate the kinds of capabilities that would be desired. We propose several open problems about data service agreements, e.g., techniques for agreement monitoring, and appropriate formalisms for specifying and reasoning about data supply chain graphs.
