Abstract:
In this paper we present a demo implementation of an event driven system, which aims to enable execution of Semantic Web Services. Our demo infrastructure is based on the Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO) [Roman et al., 2004]. The implementation follows research carried out by the Web Services Modeling Execution1 working group. WSMX is a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and allows an agent acting on behalf of a user to talk to WSMX enabling discovery, selection, mediation and invocation of formally described Web Services to carry out specific client tasks. Through the implementation of WSMX we aim to prove the viability of WSMO and although the first implementation of the system remains incomplete in terms of the required functionality, all components are in place and the system is capable of executing simple scenarios. Through continuous open source development 2 we aim to enhance WSMX with the intended functionality for all defined conceptual components.
