Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the background of web services composition firstly and deduce the main challenges of automatic services composition. Considering both the usability and adoption, we propose a solution that is classifying the services into two types: one is information services, the other is action services. According to the information services, which semantic description is simpler than general services, we propose an automatic service composition approach based on similarity computation between concept words, which can improving the efficiency and precision of composition results. The key of this approach is to support users’ request automatically. Compare to existing work in this field, our work has some advantages in scalability and flexibility.
