Abstract
Proper selection of a Web Service for a particular business process from a set of services offered by external parties is a complex task that involves significant level of risk. It requires extensive knowledge not only on service capabilities but also on specific business context of its use as well as ability to compare contexts with capabilities. This article presents shortcomings of existing approaches to service discovery and selection in this area. Based on these observations, it proposes a vision of solution to this problem in terms of trustworthiness calling for the further research in this subject.
