Semantic web services, part 1
2007
Abstract Semantic Web services (SWS) has been a vigorous technology research area for about six years. A great deal of innovative work has been done, and a great deal remains. Several large research initiatives have been producing substantial bodies of technology, which are gradually maturing. SOA vendors are looking seriously at semantic technologies and have made initial commitments to supporting selected approaches. In the world of standards, numerous activities have reflected the strong interest in this work.

Semantic Web Services -- a Survey
2008
The technology where the meaning of the information and the service of the web is defined by making the web to understand and satisfies the request of the people is called Semantic Web Services. That is the idea of having data on the web defined and linked in a way that it can be used by machines not just for display purpose, but for automation, integration and reuse of data across various application .The idea of the semantic is raised to overcome the limitation of the Web services such as Average WWW searches examines only about 25% of potentially relevant sites and return a lot of unwanted information, Information on web is not suitable for software agent and Doubling of size. It is built on top of the Web Services extended with rich semantic representations along with capabilities for automatic reasoning developed in the field of artificial intelligence. This survey attempts to give an overview of the underlying concepts and technologies along with the categorization, selection and discovery of services based on semantic.

In recent years service-orientation has increasingly been adopted as one of the main approaches for developing complex distributed systems out of reusable components called services. Realizing the potential benefits of this software engineering approach requires semi-automated and automated techniques and tools for searching or locating services, selecting the suitable ones, composing them into complex processes, resolving heterogeneity issues through process and data mediation, and reduce other tedious yet recurrent tasks with minimal manual effort. Just as semantics has brought significant benefits to search, integration and analysis of data, semantics is also seen as a key to achieving a greater level of automation to service orientation. This has lead to research and development, as well as standardization efforts on semantic Web services. Activities related to semantic Web services have involved developing conceptual models or ontologies, algorithms and engines that could support machines in semi-automatically or automatically discovering, selecting, composing, orchestrating, mediating and executing services. This chapter provides an overview of the area after nearly a decade of research. The main principles and conceptual models proposed thus far including OWL-S, WSMO, and SAWSDL/METEOR-S. The main approaches developed by the research community that are able to use these semantic descriptions of services to support some of the typical activities related to services and service-based applications are described. Next, the ideas and techniques described through two applications that integrate semantic Web services technologies within real-world application are illustrated. Finally, a set of key resources is provided that would allow the reader to reach a greater understanding of the field, and are the main issues that will drive the future of semantic Web services.

Technical issues in the development of knowledge-based services for the semantic web
SWAP: Semantic Web Applications …, 2005
The Semantic Web aims to extend the current Web with formal semantics in order to improve how users experience the Web, by ameliorating current activities and supporting the automation of some others. So far, current Semantic Web prototypes mostly aim at collecting and exposing information. Still, a semantic layer can support applying Knowledge-Based Systems techniques to the development of brand-new fully-fledged Knowledge-Based Services for the Web. In this paper, we present the technical issues that have to be faced in the development of such a kind of application by presenting the Online Design of Events Application: a Semantic Web-based design support system that assists event organisers in the process of preparing events such as workshops and conferences, by effectively reasoning over an inter-organisational process accross the Web.
The Semantic Web Bringing Semantics to Web Services
2008
Arevolution is underway in computing, and if you believe pundits such as Vint Cerf, “father of the Internet, ” it won’t be long before your bathroom scale surreptitiously transmits your weight to your doctor, who might command a stop to the rocky road ice cream your fridge automatically orders for you from www.groceries. com. 1 While many of us have heard such amusing tales, ice cream lovers can relax for a little while. Pervasive networked devices and programs that can seamlessly interoperate are still a ways off. Realizing this vision requires a computing infrastructure that supports communication and interoperation between diverse, distributed computer programs and devices. Furthermore, to achieve this seamlessly, those programs and devices must know each others’ capabilities and communicate requests and responses unambiguously. Enter Web services and the Semantic Web. Web services are “self-contained, modular applications that can be described, published, located, and invoked ov...

Web Services Roadmap: The Semantic Web Perspective
Advanced Int'l Conference on Telecommunications and Int'l Conference on Internet and Web Applications and Services (AICT-ICIW'06), 2006
Recently the field of Web services has gained focus both in industry and academia. While industry has been mostly interested in standardisation and promotion of the technology, academia has been looking for ways to fit the technology into other frameworks, such as the Semantic Web. Anyway, despite of the increased academic and commercial interest to Web services, there are currently only few case studies available about Web services in the Semantic Web context. Moreover, according to authors' knowledge, there is no publicly available study analysing which data is currently mostly provided/required by Web services.
Semantic Web Service: A technical Review
This paper presents a brief summary of the state of the art in semantic web services. The motivation and salient challenges in this eld are rstly discussed. Then, current predominant approaches including WSMO, OWL-S, SWSF and WSDL-S are evaluated emphasizing on their separate strengths and de ciencies in terms of addressing the challenges. Through the comparison and contrast of current techniques' similarities and di erences from a technical perspective, the paper will nally summary current unsolved problems and related contributions on them, thereby look into the overall status of the state of the art in the evolvement of Semantic Web Service and potential future direction.
Toward Semantic Web Services
The Web is moving from being a collection of pages toward a collection of services that interoperate through the Internet. In this paper we show how ontological information improves on the growing Web services infrastructure by adding capability matching and a high degree of autonomy to web services so that they can automatically adapt to changing situations.

Semantic Web Services: A Study of Existing Technologies, Tools and Projects
DESIDOC Journal of Library & Information Technology
Semantic web service (SWS) is an extension of the web service with an explicit representation of meanings. It promises to increase the level of automation and has ability to integrate and reuse diverse information resources relevant to a given situation in a cost-effective way. It has the potentiality to change the way knowledge and business services are consumed and provided on the web. This paper presents state-of-the-art of current enabling SWS technologies. Discusses about the exiting important initiatives for SWS approaches and gives a comparative study between two important SWS approaches. It also discusses about some of the established tools and projects on different facets of SWS.

Semantic Web Services Fundamentals
Handbook of Service Description, 2012
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.
