DAML-S: semantic markup for web services

TLDR
The overall structure of the ontology, the service profile for advertising services, and the process model for the detailed description of the operation of services are described, which compare DAML-S with several industry efforts to define standards for characterizing services on the Web.
Abstract
The Semantic Web should enable greater access not only to content but also to services on the Web. Users and software agents should be able to discover, invoke, compose, and monitor Web resources offering particular services and having particular properties. As part of the DARPA Agent Markup Language program, we have begun to develop an ontology of services, called DAML-S, that will make these functionalities possible. In this paper we describe the overall structure of the ontology, the service profile for advertising services, and the process model for the detailed description of the operation of services. We also compare DAML-S with several industry efforts to define standards for characterizing services on the Web.

DAML-S: Web Service Description for the Semantic Web

TL;DR: DAML-S is presented, a DAML+OIL ontology for describing the properties and capabilities of Web Services, and three aspects of the ontology are described: the service profile, the process model, and the service grounding.

Modeling Quality of Service for Workflows and Web Service Processes

TL;DR: This paper presents a predictive QoS model that makes it possible to compute the quality of service for workflows automatically based on atomic task QoS attributes, and presents the implementation of the model for the METEOR workflow system.

Simulation, verification and automated composition of web services

TL;DR: This paper defines the semantics for a relevant subset of DAML-S in terms of a first-order logical language and provides decision procedures for Web service simulation, verification and composition.

Adapting Golog for Composition of Semantic Web Services

TL;DR: It is argued that an augmented version of the logic programming language Golog provides a natural formalism for automatically composing services on the Semantic Web and logical criteria for these generic procedures that define when they are knowledge self-sufficient and physically selfsufficient are proposed.

Conditional rewriting logic as a unified model of concurrency

TL;DR: Maude as discussed by the authors is a programming language whose modules are rewriting logic theories, which is defined and given denotational and operational semantics, and it provides a simple unification of concurrent programming with functional and object-oriented programming and supports high level declarative programming of concurrent systems.
