An Ontology Supported Semantic Web Service Composition Method in Enterprise Application Integration

Abstract

In EAI, current approaches based on Web Service are in short of flexibility because of lacking semantic. In this paper, we introduce an extended semantic matching algorithm of Web services in which state factors of Web services are considered. We also introduce an ontology supported semi-dynamic automatic Web service composition method to realize the integration of business processes in EAI. This method combines the advantages of simpleness of static service composition and flexibility of dynamic service composition.
