TLDR
This paper shows how to use OWL-S in conjunction with Web service standards, and explains and illustrates the value added by the semantics expressed in OWl-S.Abstract:
Service interface description languages such as WSDL, and related standards, are evolving rapidly to provide a foundation for interoperation between Web services. At the same time, Semantic Web service technologies, such as the Ontology Web Language for Services (OWL-S), are developing the means by which services can be given richer semantic specifications. Richer semantics can enable fuller, more flexible automation of service provision and use, and support the construction of more powerful tools and methodologies. Both sets of technologies can benefit from complementary uses and cross-fertilization of ideas. This paper shows how to use OWL-S in conjunction with Web service standards, and explains and illustrates the value added by the semantics expressed in OWL-S.read more

Adding Semantic Support to Existing UDDI Infrastructure
TL;DR: This paper discusses how to store complex semantic markups in a UDDI data model and use that information to perform semantic query processing in order to support semantic service description and match making with registries that conform to the U DDI V3 specification.
Dissertation
Flexible Service Choreography
TL;DR: This research has resulted in the MultiAgent Service Choreography (MASC) language to express scientific workflow, methodology for system building and a software framework which performs agentbased Web service choreography, in order to enact distributed e-Science experiments.

The Geospatial Semantic Web: What are its Implications for Geospatial Information Users?
TL;DR: This chapter provides a basic understanding of the needs and visions driving the evolution toward the SW and GSW; the principles and technologies involved in their implementation; the state of the art in the efforts to create the G SW; the impacts of the GSW on the way the authors use the Web to discover, evaluate, and integrate geospatial data and services; and the needs for future research and development to make theGSW a reality.

Data Enrichment Using Web APIs
TL;DR: The data enrichment framework is presented, a tool that uses data mining and other semantic techniques to automatically guide the selection of sources and monitors the quality of the data sources and automatically penalizes sources that continue to return low quality results.

Semantics-aware services for the mobile computing environment
TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce abstract semantic modeling of mobile services that allows both machine reasoning about service composability and enhanced interoperability at both middleware and application level, combining the elegant properties of software architecture modeling with the semantic reasoning power of the Semantic Web paradigm.

OWL Web ontology language overview
TL;DR: This document provides an introduction to OWL by informally describing the features of each of the sublanguages of OWL, the Web Ontology Language by providing additional vocabulary along with a formal semantics.

Business process execution language for web services
TL;DR: This book focuses on executable processes and comes back to abstract processes in Chapter 4, which can be used to replace sets of rules usually expressed in natural language, which is often ambiguous.

Semantic Matching of Web Services Capabilities
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a solution based on DAML-S, a DAMLbased language for service description, and show how service capabilities are presented in the Profile section of a DAMl-S description and how a semantic match between advertisements and requests is performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Semantic Web services
TL;DR: The authors propose the markup of Web services in the DAML family of Semantic Web markup languages, which enables a wide variety of agent technologies for automated Web service discovery, execution, composition and interoperation.
Business Process Execution Language for Web Services Version 1.1
TL;DR: The BPEL4WS specification defines an interoperable integration model that should facilitate the expansion of automated process integration in both the intracorporate and the business-to-business spaces.
