Semantic Web Services Meta-model
This document discusses semantic web services and introduces a new meta-model approach. It begins by describing the classical web and vision for the semantic web. It then covers existing standards like OWL-S and WSMO that define ontologies and elements for semantic web services. A new meta-model is proposed that models ontologies, interfaces, operations, messages, service providers and processes to define semantic web services. An example company, CongoBuy, is presented to demonstrate applying the meta-model.

Editor's Notes
- #28 The grounding of a service specifies the details of how to access the service – details having mainly to do with protocol and message formats, serialization, transport and addressing. Only the service grounding deals with the concrete level of specification, the service profile and model are only thought of as abstract representations. The main aim of grounding is to concretely realize the inputs and outputs of an atomic process as messages. These further carry the inputs and outputs in a specific defined communicable form.
- #29 Ontologies: They provide the terminology used by other elements to describe the relevant aspects of the domains of discourse. - Goals: They state the intentions that should be solved by web services and are representations of one or more objectives which need to be fulfilled. - Web Services: A Web Service is a computational entity which is able to achieve a part of or the complete goals a user seeks to fulfill. WSMO web service descriptions describe various aspects of a service and consist of functional, non-functional and the behavioral aspects of a web service. - Mediators to resolve interoperability problems. They describe elements to overcome interoperability and incompatibility problems between different elements on data (ooMediator), process (ggMediator, wgMediator) and protocol level (wwMediator).

They describe elements to overcome interoperability and incompatibility problems between different elements on data (ooMediator), process (ggMediator, wgMediator) and protocol level (wwMediator).
- #31 The ontology in WSMO consists mostly of concepts, attributes and instances. Each of them can be described using non-functional properties. Concepts can build a taxonomy and are linked to other concepts using attributes. There can be functions and relations using these concepts as parameter and axioms which are logical expressions together with their non-functional properties.
- #32 Each web service in WSMO builds on one or more ontologies and might use mediators to translate between several ontologies or web services. They are described using interfaces and capabilities. The interface for a complex web service is characterized using the web service orchestration or choreography which is built using an abstract state machine (on states and transitions). The capability describes the functional parameters of the (one-step or multi-step) web service. It specifies the preconditions (the information state of the web service before execution), assumptions (the state of the world before execution), postconditions (the information state of the web service after its execution) and effects (the state of the world after execution).
- #33 WSMO goals enable the possibility to model the intentions that should be solved by one or more web services. They describe an interface that should be implemented and capabilities that need to be fulfilled. Therefore, ontologies and mediators might be needed to achieve the goal.
