Method and Supporting Framework for Business domain-oriented Web Service Discovery
Jia Liu, Haiyang Wang, Lizhen Cui, Yuliang Shi · Journal of Southeast University · 2008
This paper proposes a new business domain-oriented web service discovery method and framework to solve the low precision results caused by UDDI (universal description, discovery and integration) syntactic discovery and the difficulty in selecting from among functionally equivalent web services. When requesting services, service clusters are extracted from concrete services in terms of functional requests; then, through business information properties consultation, the most suitable services are determined and finally bound to user requests. The whole process is transparent to users. This framework is also tested and supported through a prototype based on a travel domain, IPVita (intelligent platform of virtual travel agency).
