Web Service Matching for RESTful Web Services Based on Parameter Semantic Network

Abstract

Abstract-With the increasing demands of matching RESTful web services in data sharing systems, a novel service matching method based on the parameter semantic network model is proposed. Compared with traditional matching methods of web services, the proposed method aims at classifying various web services into some certain categories based on the themes, and then giving a convincing matching rate. Furthermore, the parameter semantic network model comprehensively supports service matching including traditional web services and RESTful web services, even for those RESTful web services without WADL. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed matching method has a high precision rate and a high recall rate for the RESTful web services.
