Web Services Discovery Overview

AM. Helmy

Abstract


The increasing usage of Web services on the Internet has led to much interest in the area of service discovery. Web Service Discovery is the process of locating a machine-process able description of a web service that may previously unknown and that meets certain functional criteria. In industry, many applications are built by calling different web services available on internet. These applications are highly dependent on discovering correct and efficient web service. This paper gives overview of the web services discovery process from multidimensional view.


Keywords
