Abstract | The Web services paradigm enables automated web application interoperations similar to those performed by autonomous software agents over the Internet. Although industrial efforts in the service-oriented approach provide a foundation for machine-machine automation, the first generation of Web services related technologies (e.g., SOAP, UDDI, and WSDL) were limited to ontological representation, which was an essential requirement for machine-understandable information. Another evolving approach is DAML-S - a Web service semantic markup language - to formulate ontologies with a set of terms that describe service properties and capabilities, as well as interfaces. This study suggests an Intelligent Web Service (IWS) system - a declarative approach to the construction of Semantic Web application by means of a unified modeling language XML Declarative Description (XDD) and an XML-based declarative programming language XML Equivalent Transformation (XET). By employment of XDD's language expressiveness and inference capability as well as XET's computation and query- and document- processing, IWS system introduces a uniform representation of ontology axioms, ontology definitions and instances as well as service constraints and rules. The IWS system demonstrates a higher degree of automation and intelligence in a B2B travel business prototype. |
