Web Service Architectural Roles

(From W3C Web Services Architecture draft )

Key:

• "Requester Agent" = Client app
• "Provider Agent" = Web service

Sequence:

1. Humans (somehow) need to agree on semantics and WSD
2. Semantics and WSD need to be (somehow) embodied in Requester and Provider Agents
3. Requester and Provider Agents then interact
