Abstract


The increasing use of Web services in Information Systems mainly increases interoperability between different systems available on the Web providing a low coupling. The combination of these services encourages the use of these compositions in web applications, however the task of finding a Web service can become a complicated activity for user, especially if such activity has to be done manually. Furthermore, the process of developing new services semantically similar can be found in order to boost business activity to be performed. Thus, this paper proposes to incorporate the discovery of semantic Web services in the development process of a composition through an integrated development (IDE). This way the plugin (OWL-S Composer 2.0) is proposed for Eclipse IDE to facilitate interoperability and semantic web services thus expanding the activities of businesses within an organization.
