Abstract :
This paper introduces the traditional web and its limitationsy and how these limitations can beovercome by putting the lights on a new interesting approach for the web which is the Semantic Web. The most common technologies that can be used to construct such smart web are discussed briefly, and then its current layered architecture models as proposed by Tim Berners-Lee and others are evaluated to alleviate discrepancies and weak points. An enhanced architecture obeying layered architecture evaluation criteria and standard principles is proposed. This enhanced model is evaluated and contrasted- against other models. A case study is presented to evaluate the performance of OWLS as an infrastructure of our proposed architecture and to evaluate service matchmaking algorithms.
