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

Towards a Flexible Middleware for Context-aware Pervasive and Wearable Systems (Invited Paper)
TL;DR: This paper goes through the state of the art of middleware for pervasive and wearable computing, and outlines the approach that is geared to autonomic systems and based on the P2P paradigm as well as on dynamic refactoring of software entities.

La sélection des services web dans une composition à base de critères non fonctionnels.
TL;DR: The experimental results show that the hybridization of metaheuristics with the fuzzy domination and the skyline outperform the standard versions of the QoSWSC problem and are considered as a multiobjective optimization problem.

An autonomic service discovery mechanism to support pervasive devices accessing the semantic grid
TL;DR: The research work of building a grid service discovery middleware with semantic web technologies has been implemented and interact correctly with other service-oriented pervasive grid middleware, providing an enhanced grid access for pervasive devices.
Bringing the Knowledge on the Web to Software Agents
TL;DR: A new framework to extract knowledge extraction from today's non-semantic web is presented, which associates semantics with the information extracted, which improves agent interoperability and achieves to delegate the knowledge extraction procedure to specialist agents, easing software development and promot- ing software reuse and maintainability.

Optimizing Service Selection in Dynamic Workflow Composition: Using Social Media to Develop Recommendations
John McDowall,Larry Kerschberg +1 more
TL;DR: A method for automating workflow composition from an assortment of physical and web services is examined, and the utility of social media in recommending one composition over another based on consumer reviews is examined.

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.

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.
