Service discovery and adaptation are two relevant paradigms in systems developed by assembling reusable software services accessed through their public interfaces. On one hand, the discovery process aims at discovering the most suitable services for a request. On the other hand, the adaptation process solves, as automatically as possible, mismatch cases which may be given at the different interoperability levels among interfaces by generating a mediating adaptor based on an adaptation contract. In this paper, we present an approach which takes advantage of context-awareness features and semantic-based mechanisms to discover services and adapt themselves to their environments.
