WSMO and WSMX Support to the Semantic Web Services Technology

This paper tests the ability of the Web Service Modeling Ontology WSMO and the Web Service Modeling eXecution environment WSMX to support the Semantic Web Services technology, and automate the process of web service discovery, selection and invocation. First, it introduced web services and their limitations that were overcome in the vision of the Semantic Web Services technology. Then a Semantic Web Service SWS was built on top of WSMO to access the publications of the German University in Cairo GUC, and was registered to WSMX. To test the validity to the claim, a service request to access the publications of the GUC was sent to WSMX and the process followed by WSMX was investigated. Furthermore, the discussion added a suggestion that would enhance the transparency between the Semantic Web and WSMO-WSMX initiatives.
