Diplom-/Masterarbeit | Titel: Ontology-based Normalization and Matching of Rich Service Descriptions

Aufgabenbereich: Service Oriented Architectures, Ontologies

Beschreibung:
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a current trend in software development, which enables the reuse single services in other service compositions. Thereby, development time and costs can be saved. Web service providers make their services accessible on the Internet and publish the service interfaces. Other services which require a certain functionality can make use of services that already provide that functionality. Currently, a common way for a service requester to find an appropriate provider is to browse a service registry manually. But this manual search is very time consuming and error-prone. This induces the demand for an automated service discovery. The automatic composition of IT services in an "on-the-fly " manner is one of the aspects that are investigated in the Collaborative Research Centre 901 "On-The-Fly Computing" at the University of Paderborn. The Rich Service Description Language (RSDL) addresses the issues of common service description languages that are a necessity for an automatic service discovery in heterogeneous service markets. A RSDL specification defines operation signatures, a data model, a protocol and operation semantics. The latter are expressed by so called visual contracts, i.e. graph transformation rules, that consist of nodes that are typed over the data model. The matching between the requester's and provider's data types is in the focus of this thesis: The RSDL specifications of a requester and a provider might be typed over heterogeneous data models, because each of the specifications was specified independently most likely. In order to obtain satisfying results in data type matching, it is not sufficient to consider only the similarity of the data type's names or their structure. Also their semantical meaning must be considered, because two types from different data models may be synonyms or homonyms. This thesis analyzes if and how semantic knowledge from ontologies can help to improve the data type matching. Further the retyping of visual contracts based on the identified data type mappings is considered in this thesis. This task is not trivial due to the fact that the mapping might contain complex relationships such as one-to-many or many-to-many relationships between data types. Furthermore it considers strategies, how to handle unmapped data types in partial mappings.
