Semantic Based System Modeling for E-Business Evolution

Service oriented architectures offer significant enhancements to organization's capabilities for collaboration and have exciting ambitions in e-business. But current researches pay less attention to how to model system for the reliable system evolution. This paper combines the semantic Web technology with architecture based modeling approach to semantically describe e-business model. Component dependencies are defined semantically, a primary benefit is that they facilitate automated service composing and testing. The semantic based system model supports system self-adaptation when services are removed or modified.
