Abstract

The semantic web services (SWSs) discovery is the process of finding a service that can possibly satisfy the user requirements, choosing between several services, and composing services to form a single service. The matchmaking between the user request and SWSs is the main task of any SWSs discovery mechanism. In this paper, a semantic distance-based matchmaking algorithm (SDMA) is introduced. The idea behind SDMA is to use the measurement of the semantic distance between the user request and the tested service as an indicator of the degree of relevance between them. In addition to many proposals, a new concepts tree is proposed to perform the process of computing the semantic distance between two concepts. SDMA bases on many concept-to-concept semantic distance measures that are modified and adapted. A deep evaluation process is performed to validate the great impact of using semantic distance measures in the field of SWSs matchmaking.
