Abstract

This paper presents an innovative approach for the publication and discovery of Web services. The proposal is based on two previous works: DIRE (DIstributed REgistry), for the user-centered distributed replication of service-related information, and URBE (UDDI Registry By Example), for the semantic-aware match making between requests and available services. The integrated view also exploits USQL (Unified Service Query Language) to provide users with a higher level and homogeneous means to interact with the different registries. The proposal improves background technology in different ways: we integrate USQL as high-level language to state service requests, widen user notifications based on URBE semantic matching, and apply URBE match making to all the facets with which services can be described in DIRE. All these new concepts are demonstrated on a simple scenario.
