Title
An implicit approach for building communities of web service registries
Abstract
In a service oriented B2B context, companies aiming to cooperate and interact with others have to make their services available through private service registries. Since the number of registries can be as large as the number of companies, the resulting registry network has to be organized to assist and improve the service discovery process. In this paper, we propose to use communities as a means to organize Web services registries in such a context. First, we propose a semantic model for Web services registry description (WSRD). A WSRD description is a semantic model depicting the functionalities offered by services advertised by a given registry. Thereafter, we propose an implicit approach for building communities based on the registries WSRD descriptions using a fuzzy clustering technique. Eventually, this clustering will be helpful for selecting an adequate registry for service requesters. Provided experimental evaluations in this paper show that our approach is efficient in realistic situations.
