Abstract

A lot of companies are nowadays obliged to follow regulations and to integrate specific policies from these regulations into their business processes. Implementing compliance automation concepts is crucial for companies because of the dependencies between compliance policies, IT-infrastructure and business process management. Nowadays in many companies there exist either no compliance automation concepts at all, or automation is limited to simply integrating hard-coded checks into standard software with no linkage to the business processes. In the scientific community in the past years, some concepts for compliance automation based on business processes, workflow technology, and semantic technologies have been developed. Semantic technologies seem to be a promising approach where implemented regulations are expressed by means of ontologies. In this chapter we present an approach for a semantics-based configuration of a service package with respect to Service Level Agreements, which capitalizes on the principles and use cases of the EU-project, plugIT. This chapter discusses the approach in detail, shows the economical benefits, and concludes with an outlook for the next steps.
