An Approach to Distributed Semantic Web Services Publication and Discovery Based on Chord

Although WSDL and UDDI are widely accepted as standards for web service discovery, they can not guarantee scalable, flexible, robust and automatic service discovery. Therefore, integrating with previous work, we design an approach and implement it for distributed SWS discovery based on P2P and Semantic Web Service technology. In the paper, first, we present the basic idea on which our approach in the paper bases, and describe the operation principle of the approach in detail. Then, we simply discuss its implementation and point out its highlighted merits. Adopting OWLS-TC3 as experimental data and testing repeatedly, the approach proves to be a scalable, flexible and effective method to publish and discover SWS in distributed environment.
