Semantic Web-based approach to simulation services dynamic discovery
Yabing Zha · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2007
Dynamic discovery of simulation services is the foremost step for the research of extensible and composable simulation.First,description model for simulation services based on OWL-S ontology are established.Simulation services and simulation requirement have been formalized.Then,we analyze the structure of simulation services dynamic discovery system supported by Grid and Web services,where semantic Web and ontology based dynamic discovery mechanism are particularly investigated.Further,we propose ontology-based matching algorithm,which is a two-step process including domain locating and service locating.This method efficiently resolves exact matchmaking between services and requirements,whose performance has been analyzed in the end.
