Abstract-We propose FQ (Fuzzy-QoS), a complete architecture for including user preferences and quality of service characteristics in the selection process of web services. Besides the flexibility of the selection and ranking algorithm, we consider of equal importance the properties of the implementation: compliance with standards, backwards compatibility and compatibility with non-FQ users, and performance of the selection mechanisms implementation.We present our approach that relies on a combination of two standards from the domain of web service and semantic web technologies: UDDI, for storing and retrieving syntactic and semantic information about web services and SAWSDL, for creating semantically annotated web service descriptions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
