On Identifying and Reducing Irrelevant Information in Service Composition and Execution

The increasing availability of massive information on the Web causes the need for information aggregation by filtering and ranking according to user's goals. In the last years both industrial and academic researchers have investigated the way in which quality of services can be described, matched, composed and monitored for service selection and composition. However, very few of them have considered the problem of evaluating and certifying the quality of the provided service information to reduce irrelevant information for service consumers, which is crucial to improve the efficiency and correctness of service composition and execution.

We present a novel solution for dealing with irrelevant information about Web services by devel...
