The discovery of Web services is often in
uenced by the rigid
structure of registries containing their XML description. In recent years
some methods that replace the traditional UDDI registry with Peer To
Peer networks for the creation of catalogs of Web services have been
proposed in order to make this structure
exible and usable. This paper
proposes a dierent view by placing the semantic description of services
as content of P2P networks and showing that all the needed information
for an ecient Web service discovery is already contained in its OWL-S
description
