Abstract. The work reported in this article aims to the discovery of WSDL specifications that are assessed to match to specific data requirements 1: Going beyond the syntactic level, we aim at exploiting the human-intended semantics of WSDL specifications At the core of the proposed method lies the Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) method, which automatically maps data requirements specified in a query to part elements of WSDL input and output messages. We study extensively the performance of the proposed method for different types of experiments ’ configurations. Experiments have been performed over an extended number of services for various domains, with very encouraging results.
