A Web Service Market Model based on Dependencies
Robert Tolksdorf, Christian Bizer, Ralf Heese · MADOC (University of Mannheim) · 2003
The construction of composite Web Services from service fragments requires semantic descriptions of service offers and service requests. We propose the use of dependencies as a modeling concept to describe service requests and service offers and outline a Web Service Market, that constructs composite services, offered by a temporary network of economically independent service providers, by resolving dependencies based on coordination theory.
