Web service composition, comparison of description languages using planning algorithm

  • Service Oriented Architectures are becoming more prevalent, with Web service technology as their main instantiation. Automated Web service composition, using planning algorithms, is used to create complex functionality, and to make it accessible on the fly. The properties used for planning are defined in web service description languages. Explore planning using three different web service description languages: WSDL, OWL-S and WSDL-S. WSDL is commonly used in workflow- and GRID based environments, describing the interface. OWL-S is a knowledge- based representation, describing semantic information. WSDL-S acts as a merger between the two previous approaches.
  • Research project:
    Explore configuration by planning, using these three languages. Evaluate and compare their applicability within the domain of configuration.
