Leveraging Fragmental Semantic Data to Enhance Services Discovery

As one foundational technology of cloud computing, services computing is playing a critical role to enable provisioning of software as a service (SaaS). However, how to effectively and efficiently discover proper available services from the cloud of resources remains a big challenge. This paper reports our continuous efforts on semantic services discovery. We extend the Support Vector Machine (SVM)-based text clustering technique in the context of service-oriented categorization in a service repository, and propose an iterative process to incrementally enrich domain ontology. A popular Web 2.0 mashup platform is used as a testbed; and preliminary evaluation results are reported.
