One of the crucial reasons for adding semantic descriptions to Web services is to enable intelligent discovery, removing the need for a human to manually search and browse textual descriptions in repositories of services, like UDDI or ebXML. The Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO) provides a conceptual model within which the function of a Web service can be described in terms of formalized pre...

Web Service discovery and composition is one of the key objectives of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) which provides a loosely-coupled environment and enables flexible assembly of existing web services. Service discovery plays a vital role in the overall process of the service discovery and composition. The Web Ontology Language for Services (OWL-S) has emerged as the de facto standard for ...

In the research of Web Service [1, 2], semantic information should be automatically discovered, selected and composed. These automations can make usage of Web Service easily. In this paper we propose a framework to facilitate the discovery of Web Service. In this framework, we use WSDRI (Web Service Discovery Information) to describe the semantic information. This framework which refers to clie...

AbstrAct Web services form the core of e-business and hence, have experienced a rapid development in the past few years. This has led to a demand for a discovery mechanism for Web services. Discovery is the most important task in the Web service model because Web services are useless if they cannot be discovered. A large number of Web service discovery systems have been developed. Universal Des...

Web services provide a standard means for the interoperable operations between electronic devices in a network. The mission of Web service discovery is to seek an appropriate Web service for a service requester on the basis of the service descriptions in Web service advertisements and the service requester’s requirements. Nevertheless, the standard language used for encoding service description...

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an approach to build distributed systems that deliver application functionality as services are language and platform-independent. Web service one of the fundamental technologies in implementing SOA based applications. modular, self-describing, self-contained loosely coupled applications can be published, located, invoked across web. As number web increase...

Web Service Discovery can be described using OWL-S. It follows web service discovery model because it has conceptual and trivial semantic web service descriptions using service profile ontology of OWL-S. The Web Service Discovery model uses Web Service matchmaking algorithm which enlarges matching techniques used in Structural Case Based Reasoning, allowing the retrieval of Web services based o...

UDDI registries are included as a standard offering within the product suite of any major SOA vendor, serving as the foundation for establishing design-time and run-time SOA governance. Despite the success of the UDDI specification and its rapid uptake by the industry, the capabilities of its offered service discovery facilities are rather limited. The lack of machineunderstandable semantics in...
