Integration of Semantic Web Service and Component-Based Development for e-business environment

This paper outlines how the Web service and component-based development are integrated for e-business environment. Previous research has suggested a method to dynamically convert components to Web service. And the semantic Web should enable greater access not only to content but also to services on the Web. It needs semantic service discovery for components. So, we add ontology-based framework to Web service generation system from components. To do that, we use UML model to be a bridge between Web service and ontology. The UML model is a useful tool to visualize and map from OWL and WSDL. The main contribution of this paper is to generate Web service dynamically from components and to support semantic Web environment by using ontology
