Peer-to-Peer Technology Usage in Web Service Discovery and Matchmaking

This paper presents a dynamic and scalable mechanism for discovery of semantically enriched descriptions of Web services. By employing Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO) as the underlying framework for describing both user requests and Web services, and combining it with the usage of Peerto-Peer technology in this context, a scalable, distributed, dynamic and flexible discovery mechanism is obtained. A use case scenario is presented for supporting the viability of such a mechanism.
