An Ontology-Based Approach for Linguistic Web Service Description

This paper proposes an ontology-based approach for the description of Linguistic Web Services (Ling WS). This approach provides a rich semantic description using two kinds of ontology. The first one covers both the OWL-S ontology for the Functional properties and an extension of this later for the Non-Functional NLP properties and their relationships. The second one is an NLP domain ontology based on ISO standards to semantically annotate the Ling WS properties.
