Özet:

As the number of the published web services increase, discovery of the web services with the desired functionality and quality is becoming a challenging process. Selecting the appropriate web services among the ones that o er the same functionality is also a challenging task. The web service repositories like UDDI (Universal Description Discovery and Integration) support only the syntactic searchs. Quality of service parameters for the published web services can not be queried over these repositories. We have proposed a query language that aims to overcome these problems. It enables its users to query the web services both syntactically and semantically. We also allow the users to specify the quality of service criteria which the desired web services should satisfy. We have developed a graphical query interface to assist the users in query sentence formulation process. The proposed work is developed as a submodule of the Domain Specific Web Service Discovery with Semantics (DSWSD-S) System. Aforementioned query language and the query interface are explained in detail in this thesis.
