About this book

Semantic Web Services for Web Databases introduces an end-to-end framework for querying Web databases using novel Web service querying techniques. This includes a detailed framework for the query infrastructure for Web databases and services. Case studies are covered in the last section of this book. Semantic Web Services For Web Databases is designed for practitioners and researchers focused on service-oriented computing and Web databases.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“Ouzzani and Bouguettaya present an efficient and novel query structure based on the concept of quality of Web service (QoWS). They describe this as a contribution to the semantic Web, where software agents formulate queries on behalf of humans. … For those who work with Web databases, optimization, and Web services, this book provides good background in ontology, the semantic Web, and Web databases. … The book delivers a very good overview of the process of developing strategies for working with ontologies, queries, and optimization.” (Alyx Macfadyen, ACM Computing Reviews, June, 2012)
