Abstract

Web services are the new paradigm for distributed computing. They offer interoperability of application and integration of large scale distributed systems. Amongst the web service standards, service registry is crucial to the overall utility of web service technology. However, the web services discovery mechanism pertaining with the UDDI [1] registry is inefficient because it only supports keyword-based and category-based matching, leading to irrelevant matches. Therefore, the provision of the scalable, flexible and robust web services publication and discovery system is crucial for the overall utility of web services. In this paper, we develop a scalable, robust and efficient infrastructure for web services publication and discovery amongst domain-based registries. More importantly, a novel algorithm is provided to classify web services into domain-based registries based on their semantic description. Experimental results show that our approach outperforms a centralized approach in terms of service discovery time.
