“…To date, efforts to enhance service directory search operations have mainly concentrated on the precision of the similarity matching operation. Examples include semantic descriptions of web services (Iqbal, Sbodio, Peristeras, & Giuliani, 2008), similarity matching algorithms based on semantic descriptions (Plebani & Pernici, 2009), and similarity calculation algorithms based on ontology (Klusch & Kapahnke, 2009). These efforts have not increased the knowledge about the contents of service directories and cannot assist web service developers.…”

Web service technology (WST) is a service-oriented architecture implementation framework that makes designing component-based internet applications possible. At present, many providers offer their services as web services. Current WST suffers from the lack of an integrated tool to assist web service developers. In WST, the services are published publicly, and their descriptions are stored in service directories. These descriptions contain valuable information about the work of different software teams throughout the world. However, with the increasing number of web services, searching for services is difficult and time-consuming. Furthermore, in current service directories, there is a little knowledge about the services, and extraction of useful information to be utilised by developers is not easy. In this paper, in order to increase the knowledge of what is available in service directories, a structure is presented by interlinking WST entities by using some defined semantic relations. The proposed structure provides a framework and a tool named WSDATool to develop new web services using information from published services or to refine current published web service descriptions. In experiments, services designed with the assistance of the WSDATool are more coherent and well designed.

“…In the first group, there exists a group of previously chosen similar services; when a service fails to work at runtime, it is replaced by another based on user context or QoS [8,9]. In the second group, similar services are selected dynamically [3,4,5,6]. In the third group, the external behavior of a Web service like execution paths or its conversations with other services is considered.…”

“…For this purpose, there is a need to seek a way to know the user's preferences about QoS. In most studies such as [3,4,5,6], finding similar services is based on functional similarity in which a number of the best services (k) are selected and introduced to the user. The user then has to select one of them based on his/her preferences about QoS.…”

SUMMARYWeb services provide a standard means for the interoperable operations between electronic devices in a network. The mission of Web service discovery is to seek an appropriate Web service for a service requester on the basis of the service descriptions in Web service advertisements and the service requester's requirements. Nevertheless, the standard language used for encoding service descriptions does not have the capacity to specify the capabilities of a Web service, leading to the problem of ambiguity in the service discovery process. This brings up the vision of Semantic Web Services and Semantic Web Service discovery, which make use of the Semantic Web technologies to enrich the semantics of service descriptions for service discovery. Semantic Web Service matchmakers are the programs or frameworks designed to implement the task of Semantic Web Service discovery and have drawn a significant amount of attention from both academia and industry from the start of this century. In this paper, we conduct a survey of the contemporary Semantic Web Service matchmakers in order to obtain an overview of the state of the art in this research area. We summarize six technical dimensions from the past literature and analyze the typical Semantic Web Service matchmakers mostly developed during the past 4 or 5 years in terms of the six dimensions. By means of this analysis, we gain an understanding of the current research and summarize a series of potential issues to that would provide the foundation for future research in this area.Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
