Zusammenfassung
The increasing popularity of the Software-as-a-Service and Cloud Computing trends has been among the main factors behind the increasing number of public web services in several domains, e.g., e-commerce, enterprise, education, government, etc. Moreover, the functionalities of such web services are becoming more complex due to the complexities of modern business needs and marketplaces. Additionally, it has been observed that service providers, who represent the single source of information about web services, typically release poor service descriptions. Due to the aforementioned factors, service discovery has become one of the main challenges in Service-oriented Computing (SOC). In this demo, we show how to enrich service descriptions enabling enhanced service discovery. In our approach, web services are enriched with annotations (textual descriptions and tags) that are automatically extracted from the websites of their providers and from the analysis of their invocations.
