Agent based discovery of web service to enhance the quality of web service selection

摘要

Web services play a major role in developing business application in this internet era. As there are many web services available for a particular function, finding appropriate web service based on our criteria is becoming a tedious process. Currently, finding the exact web service based on the keyword based search method of UDDI registry doesn't return the web service of user interest at all times. In this paper we have discussed an agent based method for web service selection, from the information that is given in the wsdl file by the web service provider. Data mining is done on those data that are collected from wsdl files and feedback taken from the web service users, by the agent to discover some interesting patterns for further users of the web service.
