Using WSMO to Enable Mediation of Heterogeneous Services and Semi-automation of Service Discovery and Execution in Semantic SOA
Si Chen Zhou, Zhefeng Sun · 2009
Although service oriented architecture (SOA) goes a long way toward providing interoperability in distributed and heterogeneous environments, managing semantic differences in such environments remains a challenge. This paper proposes a framework of semantic SOA, and uses Web service modeling ontology (WSMO) as its semantic service model. Last, we introduce a running example using semantic SOA for mediation of heterogeneous services and semi-automation of service discovery and execution.
