Abstract
The convergence of Semantic Web with service-oriented computing is manifested by Semantic Web service (SWS) technology. It addresses the major challenge of automated, interoperable and meaningful coordination of Web services to be carried out by intelligent software agents. In this chapter, we briefly discuss prominent SWS description frameworks, that are the standard SAWSDL, OWL-S and WSML. This is complemented by a critique, and selected references to further readings on the subject. Due to space limitations other semantic service description framworks like SWSL (Semantic Web Service Language) and the DIANE service description language are excluded.
