Purpose The success of web services involved the adoption of this technology by different service providers through the web, which increased the number of web services, as a result making their discovery a tedious task. The UDDI standard has been proposed for web service publication and discovery. However, it lacks sufficient semantic description in the content of web services, which makes it difficult to find and compose suitable web services during the analysis, search, and matching processes. In addition, few works on semantic web services discovery take into account the user’s profile. The purpose of this paper is to optimize the web services discovery by reducing the search space and increasing the number of relevant services. Design/methodology/approach The authors propose a new approach for the semantic web services discovery based on the mobile agent, user profile and metadata catalog. In the approach, each user can be described by a profile which is represented in two dimensions: personal dimension and preferences dimension. The description of web service is based on two levels: metadata catalog and WSDL. Findings First, the semantic web services discovery reduces the number of relevant services through the application of matching algorithm “semantic match”. The result of this first matching restricts the search space at the level of UDDI registry, which allows the users to have good results for the “functional match”. Second, the use of mobile agents as a communication entity reduces the traffic on the network and the quantity of exchanged information. Finally, the integration of user profile in the service discovery process facilitates the expression of the user needs and makes intelligible the selected service. Originality/value To the best knowledge of the authors, this is the first attempt at implementing the mobile agent technology with the semantic web service technology.

This paper proposes a new mashup framework for end users and discusses the usability of the proposed framework. Recently, a wide variety of requirements for web services has arisen because more users are using web services in their daily lives. However, a single web service cannot satisfy all requirements due to the variety of those requirements. To satisfy the requirements, it is important to have web service mashups which coordinate a number of web services to match the requirements. A mashup framework is a software environment that makes it easy for developers to make mashups. The challenge of this study is to develop a new mashup framework for end users with a new mashup model and modules. The model and the modules are implemented in the proposed framework.

Personalized Approach

Web services are meaningful only if potential users may find and execute them. Universal description discovery and integration (UDDI) help businesses, organizations, and other web services providers to discover and reach to the service(s) by providing the URI of the WSDL file. However, it does not offer a mechanism to choose a web service based on its quality. The standard also lacks sufficient semantic description in the content of web services. This lack makes it difficult to find and compose suitable web services during analysis, search, and matching processes. In addition, a central UDDI suffers from one centralized point problem and the high cost of maintenance. To get around these problems, the authors propose in this chapter a novel framework based on mobile agent and metadata catalogue for web services discovery. Their approach is based on user profile in order to discover appropriate web services, meeting customer requirements in less time and taking into account the QoS properties.

REpresentational State Transfer (REST) is an architectural style that has recently emerged as a new approach to develop and deliver Web services. In fact, a great number of companies, such as eBay™, Twitter™, and Amazon.com™, have adopted REST to deliver Web services and Web feeds. This chapter offers a review of the support for consuming RESTful Web services in Adobe™ Flex™; then, it presents two case studies about the development of third-party RESTful Web services-based Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) using Adobe Flex™ along with HyperText Markup Languages (HTML) and JavaScript. The case studies presented in this chapter are intended to explain the common prerequisites for using RESTful Web services Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) as well as the particular implementation details, including the challenges and alternatives facing the capabilities and limitations of the target technologies. In addition, they exemplify the use of some User Interface (UI) patterns.
