Abstract

Semantic Web Services are providing means for (semi-) automatic discovery, composition, and execution of Web Services. However, these new emerging semantic techniques seem to be inaccurate to be used in terms of semanticizing the capabilities of Web Services and the requests of Web Services consumers. This comes from the blurred representation of their involved ontologies. This chapter presents a semantic Web-Service-based reference model that is mainly relying on the idea of applying lightweight semantics to Web Services in order to have an efficient solution for different business domains. The model advances the reusability of its components and reduces the necessity of data transformation functions in business process descriptions. Furthermore, technical aspects about the core prototypical implementation are described.
