Abstract

Web services provide an essential deploy environment to realize dynamic systems by facilitating application-to-application interaction. To improve the automation of Web services interoperation, a lot of technologies are recommended, such as Semantic Web services and agent. Moreover, QoS is key to dynamically selecting the services that best meet our needs. Based on Semantic Web services, agent, and combined QoS, we propose a model for automatically searching Web services in this paper. First the model gets the information of the required Web services from UDDI. Then according to the QoS requirements, appropriate Web services are selected and ranked so that consumers can make a choice by order priority. This approach presents an experimental solution for intelligent Web service searching. Finally, we give an example to illustrate how the model works.
