  <dc:description xmlns:ns0="xml" ns0:lang="en">Monitoring the temporal evolution of obligations and prohibitions is a crucial aspect in the design of open interaction systems. In this paper we regard  such obligations and prohibitions as cases of social commitment with starting points and deadlines, and propose to model them in OWL, the logical  language recommended by the W3C for SemanticWeb applications. In particular we propose an application-independent ontology of the notions of  social commitment, temporal proposition, event, agent, role, and norm, that can be used in the specification of any open interaction system. We then  delineate a hybrid solution that uses the OWL ontology, SWRL rules, and a Java program to dynamically monitor the temporal evolution of social  commitments, taking into account the elapsing of time and the actions performed by the agents interacting within the system.</dc:description>
