This is a failed match.
Prototype.System.
QoS matchmaking is a process that requires a repository to take an inquiry as input
and to return all of the published advertisements that conform to the inquiry??™s QoS
requirement. A profile specification conforms to another profile specification only
if it is stronger than, or equally as strong as, the other constraint. Based on this
definition, we have designed a matchmaking algorithm for OWL-QoS (Zhou, Chia,
& Lee, 2005), together with its prototype.
Figure 4 describes the system diagram of our matchmaker prototype. The prototype
system contains an ontology repository, a converter, and an ontology reasoner. The
matchmaking algorithm is defined as follows: This algorithm evaluates the relationship
between the requester??™s and the provider??™s profile concepts. Subsume, Exact,
PlugIn, Intersection, and Disjoint are the possible relationships, in ranking order
from the best to the worst match. The ontology repository holds all the published
Web service descriptions. The converter changes the ontology written in OWL+
ontology inference layer (OIL) and OWL to the reasoner??™s recognizable syntax.
