Service-oriented computing has become one of the predominant
factors in current IT research and development. Web services seem
to be the middleware solution of the future for highly
interoperable distributed software solutions. In parallel, research
on the Semantic Web provides the results required to exploit
distributed machine-processable data. To combine these two research
lines into industrial-strength applications, a number of research
projects have been set up by organizations like W3C and the EU.
Dieter Fensel and his coauthors deliver a profound introduction
into one of the most promising approaches the Web Service Modeling
Ontology (WSMO). After a brief presentation of the underlying basic
technologies and standards of the World Wide Web, the Semantic Web,
and Web Services, they detail all the elements of WSMO from basic
concepts to possible applications in e-commerce, e-government and
e-banking, and they also describe its relation to other approaches
like OWL-S or WSDL-S.
While many of the related technologies and standards are still
under development, this book already offers both a broad conceptual
introduction and lots of pointers to future application scenarios
for researchers in academia and industry as well as for developers
of distributed Web applications.
