Does the SW Replace Web Services?
Convergence (at W3C)


  • Both areas are represented at W3C
  • The Groups on Web Services work on convergence, too
    • mapping of WSDL1.2 to RDF
    • Web Choreography development in terms of RDF
      • initiatives already exist, e.g., OWL-S (formerly DAML-S)
    • cooperation with the RDF Interest Group
    • there is a “Semantic Web Services” Interest Group
  • The SW activity regards WS as one of its test cases
