An evaluation of state-of-the-art approaches for web service selection

Published: 08 November 2010 Publication History

Abstract

Nowadays, considering Web Services has become one of the hot issues in the area of computer science that makes an ability to collect capabilities and components in a unique interface to fulfill the user's requirements. Sometimes two or more services are discovered in available list of services; therefore, there should be a possibility for selecting the best services from discovered list which can satisfy the user's goal. Currently, there are some approaches for sustaining Semantic Web Service Selection such as WSMO, OWL-S, and SAWSDL. In this paper a classification based on two levels is presented: QoS level and Semantic level. The QoS level includes five categories: Policy based, Trust & Reputation based, Improve protocol based, Semantic based, and Preference based. The Semantic level includes: WSMO, OWL-S, and SAWSDL. In each level, the approaches are compared based on some criteria such as Performance, Automatic, and Scalability. Finally the results of the comparative evaluation are presented in both levels.
