Abstract
We propose a method for the automatic refinement of web service compositions: given a composite web service specification over abstract modules, our method generates lower-level versions of this composition. The refinement process is based on query rewriting techniques extended to take into account not only functional and non-functional requirements but also semantic information. Experimental results illustrate the performance and scalability of the method.
