Abstract

Proliferation of multiagent application in business domains prompts increasing studies in MIBIS (Multiagent-based Integrative Business Information Systems) development. Recently, MibML (Multiagent-based Integrative Business Modeling Language) has been proposed as a conceptual-modeling grammar for the MIBIS universe. In this paper, we investigate the MibML grammar from the perspective of the BWW (Bunge-Wand-Weber) ontology and equip the MibML constructs with unambiguous ontological semantics. This study facilitates the straightforward mapping from business domain knowledge into MibML modeling constructs.
