“…Although service tailoring is an essential feature in any application domain, we focus on homecare application services. Tailorability has been studied extensively in the context of specific technologies and applications [3][4][5][6][7], but those approaches are not suitable for homecare domain as homecare services have their own specifications such as high dynamicity of user's requirements and low level of user's technical skills [8].…”

Health monitoring and healthcare provisioning for the elderly at home have received increasingly attention. Since each elderly person is unique, with a unique lifestyle, living environment and health condition, personalization is an essential feature of homecare software services. Service tailoring, which is creating a new service to meet individual requirements may be achieved in a cost-effective and time-efficient manner if new services can be configured and composed from already existing services. In this paper, we propose an effective service tailoring process and architecture to personalize homecare services according to the individual care-receiver's needs. In addition, we present a scenario to highlight the need for service tailoring and to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.

Ontology and its inferencing capabilities are critical for the modern semantic web. Ontology validation is necessary due to the uncertainty of the Description Logic based inferences. Ontology validation should be independent of DL reasoners. To overcome this uncertainty of concepts and instances inference results, in this paper we describes some of the formal ontology validation methods based on the sequent logic and simple conceptual graphs. I. INTRODUCTIONThere is no doubt that future of Internet is based on the semantic web technology [1] which is more intelligent than current. The hart of the semantic web is based on the ontology. The abstract characterization of the ontology is the Description Logic [2], [3] (DL). Therefore, DL can be used to define specification for an ontology. For example, specification for Web services personalization ontology [4]. According to the [5], an ontology is a specification of a conceptualization. The common question is how to debug ontologies because all the systems need to be debugged while being developed. Debugging is common nature of the all software applications which can not be avoided intentionally. DL reasoners [6] perform a considerable variety of inference types, most of the results are unpredictable. For example, as explained in the [7]
