Web service discovery systems in service-oriented architecture: problems and solutions

S.S. Remarovych

Abstract


With emerging the paradigm of Service-Oriented Computing and increasing the number of available Web services on the Internet the request is augmenting for tools to perform discovery, selection, composition, and invocation of Web services. At present, a large number of approaches to Web service discovery are being proposed, which is due to a number of problems and possible solutions in the construction of Web service discovery systems. In this article the analytical overview of the challenges in the building and functioning of such systems is conducted, and the existing approaches to solving them are given. It is shown that the problem of Web service discovery can be illuminat-ed in description logic based on the “best covering”.
