Web service discovery with implicit QoS filtering

Web Service (WS) discovery is a critical problem hindering web service technology proliferation. The current solution, based on catalog-style browsing, provides no control over the quality of registered services. Application of matching techniques for WS retrieval is still under investigation. The objective of this work is the design of a framework to improve WS discovery. Our approach is based on application of distributed recommendation system to provide Quality of Service (QoS) information and on testing of retrieval methods on service specifications.
