The WSMO-PA Service Editor

Abstract

Semantic Web Service (SWS) editors did not support until now the expression of domain specific semantics. On the other hand, the adoption of SWSs in different domains, i.e. eGovernment, eBusiness, has created the need for enhancing SWS descriptions with domain specific semantics. Therefore, models and tools that allow this integration have to be developed. The WSMO-PA Service Editor is an effort made towards this direction. It provides a friendly user interface which facilitates the creation of semantically-enhanced descriptions for Public Administration (PA) services. To do so, the WSMO-PA Service Editor combines the GEA PA Service Model, the WSMO Framework and the WSMO-PA specification.
