Resolution and Constraint Propagation for Semantic Web Services Discovery

International audienceThe purpose of semantic Web services discovery is to use semantic knowledge to find services that can be composed to form an admissible answer to a query. In this paper we consider the advantage of adopting a knowledge-based approach to Web services discovery. Services are described by means of terminological axioms and constrained clauses. We apply a specific resolution and a constraint propagation mechanism to evaluate queries over services
