Onto SOA: From Ontology-Enabled SOA to Service-Enabled Ontologies

Overview The significant potential of the combination of ontologies and SOA has been recognized in the field of Semantic Web Services (SWS). The OWL-S and WSMF approaches provides with ontology-based frameworks for WSDL web services to enable automation of high-level tasks such as discovery, invocation and composition of web services. The authors also investigate ontologies and SOA but the initial focus is on the software architectural aspects of ontology-enabled services that is set up to define a general Ontology-enabled Service-Oriented Architectural style (Onto-SOA). Onto-SOA is independent from ontology language and a particular web service technology and, therefore, is applicable within any approach that combines ontologies and SOA.
