Abstract
Semantic Web services, one of the most significant areas in the emerging business process management systems, have attracted a great deal of effort from both academic and industry community. Traditional methodologies are still very inadequate to effectively and autonomously conduct service discovery and composition in a dynamic environment, as they seldom focus on dealing with real complex situations, such as simultaneously considering peers’ multiple specifications which reflect different properties of e-services. Different ontology based e-service profiles have been proposed to enhance service oriented framework for the total or partial automation of service invocation, discovery, selection and composition, which are involved in either centralised or decentralised deployment of services. In this paper, we propose a modelling based approach to design and develop a peer-to-peer based service coordination system and their components. The peer profiles are described with the WSMO (Web Service Modelling Ontology) standard, mainly for quality of service and geographic features of the e-services, which would be invoked by various peers. To fully explore the usability of service categorisation and mining, we implemented an ontology driven unified algorithm to select the most appropriate peers. The UOW-SWS prototype also shows that the enhanced peer coordination is more adaptive and effective in dynamic business processes.
