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.

An Active Domain Node Architecture for the Semantic Web

TL;DR: Swan is an architecture for application nodes for the Semantic Web that consists of a hybrid OWL/F-Logic knowledge base, augmented with active rules, and only a set of rules is needed in order to deploy a new application.

SCH-WSD: A Semantic-Conceptual Hybrid Approach for Web Services Discovery

TL;DR: A new client-side web services architecture designed to improve the performance of web services discovery is proposed, based on a hybrid approach that includes both the semantic and conceptual approach, which is called SCH-WSD (Semantic-Conceptual Hybrid approach for Web Services Discovery).

Autonomic Fuselet Specification and Composition

TL;DR: A framework for autonomic fuselet business logic development was developed, using semantic web services and workflow technologies to specify fuselet information needs and to perform workflow composition from a goal and specifications to executable model in a manner that enables feedback mechanisms that can assess and adapt the process model to satisfy needs.

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.
