Behaviour Twin KIT

Applies to roles: skill provider, data provider, calculation service provider and delegator

OVERVIEW​

Data and calculation services must be bound to the knowledge graph by binding agents. To make the bindings accessible to the Knowledge Agents, they must be registered as a graph assets at the EDC connector. In addition, when providing a skill, this must be registered as a skill asset at the EDC connector. For both cases, policies and contract definitions are also needed.

GRAPH ASSETS​

GRAPH ASSET POLICY​

The graph asset policy can be used by more than one graph asset. The policy refers to a Use Case Framework Agreement. There may be more requirements for policies within a use case.

    }
  ],

  "edc:policy": {
    "@type": "Set",

  }
}

GRAPH ASSET CONTRACT​

  },
  "@id": "Contract?me=Graph",
  "@type": "ContractDefinition",
  "accessPolicyId": "Policy?me=Graph",
  "contractPolicyId": "Policy?me=Graph",
  "assetsSelector": {
    "@type": "CriterionDto",
    "operandLeft": "https://w3id.org/catenax/ontology/common#publishedUnderContract",
    "operator": "=",
    "operandRight": "Contract?me=Graph"
  }
}

SKILL ASSETS​

SKILL ASSET POLICY​

The skill asset policy can be used by more than one skill asset. There may be more requirements for policies within a use case.

{

    "cx-common": "https://w3id.org/catenax/ontology/common#"

      "action": "USE",
      "constraint": {
        "@type": "LogicalConstraint",
        "or": [{
          "@type": "Constraint",

          "operator":"eq",

        },
        {
          "@type": "Constraint",
          "leftOperand": "BusinessPartnerNumber",
          "operator":"eq",

        }]
      }
    }]
  }
}

SKILL ASSET CONTRACT​

  }]
}
