A Semantic Web Services-Based SOA
Zheng Xiao-juan · Computer Technology and Development · 2008
The present XML-based specifications and standards of Web services can not be sufficient to annotate Web services,so as to support generic mechanisms for discovering,composing and executing Web services.Thus,the interaction of distributed,heterogenous and ever changing Web services can result in several problems.In order to adapt to distributed,heterogenous and ever changing characteristics of Web services in a more effective way,and aimed at the weak adaptability of available SOA,semantic Web services-based SOA is proposed.That is,Web services are advertised and discovered by augmenting Web services with rich semantic descriptions.As a result,Web services will be discovered not only based on their functional requirements,but also the best quality criteria by this SOA.
