A Web Service search approach based on semantic and search engine

Abstract

Traditional method of Web Service search is based on the UDDI registry. UDDI is very popular in the domain of Web Service publishing, but it's not very suitable for Web Service discovering as it is based on keyword match. In this paper we propose a model to discover Web service based on semantic and search engine, and design its architecture. At the same time, we put forward the algorithm of splitting words and the algorithm of query expansion, develop a Web Service search prototype, give a case study, and discuss the recall, the precision and the efficiency of the prototype.
