Abstract

The research work in this paper focuses on solving the critical problems in Web Service discovery such as how to locate functionality-desired Web Services and how to select the best one from large numbers of functionality-similar Web Services. The semantic description and quality description of Web Service based on ontology proposed in this paper, provides a consistent description of different kinds of Web Service, which is used as the basis of service matching. Then the matching model of Web Service is discussed in detail, which consists of semantic similarity matching according to functionality of Web Service, and semantic filtering according to quality of Web Service. Using the descriptions and matching approach, the performance of Web Service discovery can be improved by increasing the precision and recall of Web Service searching.
