An Optimized Semantic Web Service Composition Method Based on Clustering and Ant Colony Algorithm

Abstract

In today's Web, Web Services (WSs) are created and updated on the fly Nowadays, for answering complex needs of users, the construction of new web services based on existing ones is required. It has received a great attention from different communities. This problem is known as web services composition. However, it is one of big challenge problems of recent years in a distributed and dynamic environment. Web services can be composed manually but it is a time consuming task. The automatic web service composition is one of the key features for future the semantic web. The various approaches in field of web service compositions proposed by the researchers. In this paper, we propose a novel architecture for semantic web service composition using clustering and Ant colony algorithm.
