Abstract :
Web service access points are no longer a scarce resource, and the process of discovering them is no longer attached to service registries as Web search engines have become a new major source for Web services. Unfortunately, these separate but distinct approaches to service discovery make it unclear whether provisional registry specifications and search-engine technologies will eventually emerge or coexist.
