Web Services Execution Environment
The technology of Semantic Web services (SWSs) envisions easy access to resources and
facilitates the consumption of the functionality exposed by those resources on the Web.
Seamless integration, ad-hoc cooperation between various business parties or dynamic
collaborations on the Web, can be achieved only if tools for handling semantically enhanced
services are provided. In this context, we propose the Web Service Execution Environment (WSMX),
a framework for the discovery, selection, mediation and invocation of SWSs. WSMX is based on
the conceptual model provided by the Web Services Modeling Ontology (WSMO) which describes various
aspects related to Semantic Web services. In addition, WSMX provides a reference implementation
for WSMO in the form of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), a set of collaborative software
components with well defined interfaces.
