Automation of Web service composition is one of the most important problems in Web service research area. There are numerous methods to achieve Web service composition. This paper describes the use of Asynchronous Teams (A-Teams) algorithm with genetic agents to compose semantic Web services. Specific agents realize the composition of sequential, parallel and synchronization control flow patterns. Other agents, based on genetic algorithms, perform the crossover and mutation over these patterns. The composition is described through semantic logic rules that take into account the input and output parameters obtained from OWL-S files. The quality of the composition is also evaluated. A system was implemented and typical test scenarios are also presented.
