Security conscious composition of Semantic Web services based on AI planning and description logic

Abstract

Automated composition of Semantic Web services has become one of the recent critical issues in today's Web environment. Despite the importance of AI-planning techniques for Web service composition, previous works in that area do not address security issues, which is the focus of this paper. Based on our prior work, i.e. AIMO, we present an approach called SCAIMO to achieve security conscious composition of Semantic Web services. Moreover, we propose a Secure Task Matchmaker which is responsible of matching security conscious tasks with operators and methods based on Description Logics and Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO). We test our approach on a case study and the result shows SCAIMO can provide an applicable solution.
