TL;DR: This paper presents an OWL-S Editor, whose objective is to allow easy, intuitive OWl-S service development and to provide a variety of special-purpose capabilities to facilitate SWS design.
Abstract: The power of Web Service (WS) technology lies in the fact that it establishes a common, vendor-neutral platform for integrating distributed computing applications, in intranets as well as the Internet at large. Semantic Web Services (SWSs) promise to provide solutions to the challenges associated with automated discovery, dynamic composition, enactment, and other tasks associated with managing and using service-based systems. One of the barriers to a wider adoption of SWS technology is the lack of tools for creating SWS specifications. OWL-S is one of the major SWS description languages. This paper presents an OWL-S Editor, whose objective is to allow easy, intuitive OWL-S service development and to provide a variety of special-purpose capabilities to facilitate SWS design. The editor is implemented as a plugin to the OWL ontology editor, and is being developed as open-source software.

Abstract: In what case do you like reading so much? What about the type of the extending web services technologies the use of multi agent approaches multiagent systems artificial societies and simulated organizations book? The needs to read? Well, everybody has their own reason why should read some books. Mostly, it will relate to their necessity to get knowledge from the book and want to read just to get entertainment. Novels, story book, and other entertaining books become so popular this day. Besides, the scientific books will also be the best reason to choose, especially for the students, teachers, doctors, businessman, and other professions who are fond of reading.

TL;DR: An overview of rules in the Semantic Web Services Language (SWSL) is given from the viewpoint of directions for standardization, including requirements, tasks about services, kinds of knowledge, combining rules with ontologies, suitability of fundamental knowledge representations and desirability of particular expressive features.
Abstract: We give an overview of rules in the Semantic Web Services Language (SWSL) from the viewpoint of directions for standardization. This includes requirements, tasks about services, kinds of knowledge, combining rules with ontologies, suitability of fundamental knowledge representations and desirability of particular expressive features.

Intro to Semantic Web Services Language (SWSL) The promise of Web services and the need for widely accepted standards enabling them are widely recognized, and considerable efforts are underway to define and evolve such standards in the commercial realm. Prominent among these are: Oasis’s UDDI, BPEL4WS, and Web Services Security; and W3C’s WSDL and Choreography Description Language. At the same time, recognition is growing of the need for richer semantic specifications of Web services, based on a comprehensive representational framework that spans the full range of service-related concepts. Because an expressive representation framework permits the specification of many different aspects of services, it can provide a foundation for a broad range of activities, across the Web service lifecycle, while enabling radically more and cheaper reuse of such specification knowledge across those aspects, across applications and organizations, and over the duration of the lifecycle. It can support cheaper, broader, and deeper automation of many service tasks, including: service selection and invocation; translation of message content between heterogeneous interoperating services; service moni-
