An important research challenge consists in composing web services in an automatic and distributed manner on a large scale. Indeed, most queries can not be satisfiable by one service and must be processed by composing several services. Each web service is often written by different designers and is described using the terms of their own ontology. Therefore, the composition process needs to deal with a variety of heterogeneous ontologies. In order to tackle this challenge, we propose an approach using Distributed Description Logics (DDL) to achieve the semantic composition of web services. DDL allows one to make semantic connections between ontologies and thus web services, as well as to reason to get a semantic composition of web services. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
