Verification of parameters semantic compatibility for semi-automatic web service composition: a generic case study

Published: 08 November 2010 Publication History

Abstract

We propose an algorithm for checking the semantic compatibility of Web service parameters and for suggesting compatible parameters pairings between two Web services semi-automatically. This algorithm supports semi-automatic Web service composition in workflows where the order of the Web service is known. In our use case, we used the OWL-S semantic description of Web service. We automatically generated a Taverna-compatible Xscufl file whenever possible.
