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.

Agility and Interoperability for 21st Century Command and Control

TL;DR: In this article, the authors adopt a social constructivist approach, drawing a great deal of input from political science for its theoretical foundation, and suggest three mutually supporting analytical skill-sets for further experiment and research to promote analytical agility: network philosophy; hypotheses generation and evaluation; and iterative model generation.

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.
