چکیده

The advent of the SOA paradigm is expected to cause an increase in the number of available services. This increase can create a bottleneck for the location and, therefore, for the use of services that provide a particular value. In this paper, we propose a model for the effective location of services, and a prototype implementation of this model, with some features which make it applicable to heterogeneous usage scenarios, namely: 1) it is flexible in the kind of descriptions of services and goals expected, 2) it includes assistance to consumers and providers in describing the services sought and offered, respectively, and 3) it offers different trade-offs between the accuracy of results and the efficiency of the location process based on the application of different filters.
