Abstract

The research area of Semantic Web Services investigates the annotation of services, typically in a SOA, with a precise mathematical meaning in a formal ontology. These annotations allow a higher degree of automation. The last decade has seen a wide proliferation of such approaches, proposing different ontology languages, and paradigms for employing these in practice. The next chapter gives an overview of these approaches. In the present chapter, we provide an understanding of the fundamental techniques, from Artificial Intelligence and Databases, on which they are built. We give a concise, ontology-language independent, overview of the techniques most frequently used to automate service discovery and composition.
