Services Rank by Semantic Similarity
Hui Peng · International Journal of u- and e- Service Science and Technology · 2014
Services can be described by their semantics to improve the precision of services discovery. OWL-S describes services semantic by their inputs, outputs, precondition and effects. In the frame of OWL-S, domain ontology concepts are used to describe the semantic of inputs, outputs, precondition and effects of a service in this paper. A service rank algorithm based on the semantic similarity of ontology concepts is introduced, and a travel service discovery example shows the algorithm is effective.
