Semantic Web Services: Concepts, Technologies, and Applications

Abstract
In just a few years, service-oriented architectures SOA and Web
services not only gained considerable interest in computer science
research, they were also taken up with unanimity by all major international
players in the IT industry. However, and in spite of all existing
standards, in most SOA applications much human intervention is still
required, for example to interpret the semantics of informal descriptions
or to harmonize incompatible data schemata. Semantic Web services
combine Web services communication technology with the intelligent
processing of ontology-based metadata to achieve highly integrated
enterprise application integration scenarios, for service look-up,
schema matching, or protocol negotiation, for example. Rudi Studer
and his team deliver a self-contained compendium about this exciting
field, starting with the basic standards and technologies and also
including advanced applications in eGovernment and eHealth. The contributions
provide both the theoretical background and the practical knowledge
necessary to understand the essential ideas and to design new cutting-edge
applications. They address computer science students as well as researchers
in academia and industry who need a concise introduction and state-of-the-art
survey of current research, and the book can easily be used as the
basis of a specialized course on Web services or Semantic Web applications.
In addition, IT professionals will be able to assess the potential
and possible benefits of this new technology.
