What is Semantic Web service

Chapter 99
Encyclopedia of E-Business Development and Management in the Global Economy
They are the server end of a client-server system for machine-to-machine interaction via the World Wide Web. Semantic services are a component of the semantic web because they use markup that makes data machine-readable in a detailed and sophisticated way.

Abstract
In the E-Business and particular in the eGovernment domain special focus is often given to the demand side, i.e. the everyday practice and reality of citizen and business contacts with government and businesses. Information services available online from public administration are the first stage for e-government. This stage has drawn a great amount of effort from many countries worldwide in order to satisfy the demand for readily available information. The implementation of an information system that will serve this demand is not always an easy task. This is due to the inherent difficulties that exist in the public administration domain. There are many complicated services with numerous executional paths, depending on the type of process. In many cases divergent and conflicting legislation may exist for the same case, which complicates the search effort for the average citizen. As a result, it may be difficult for a citizen to find, based on the relevant legislation the correct information regarding the formal documents and the procedure that must be followed for a certain service.

Web Service in Knowledge Management for Global Software Development
The advantages of integrating and coordinating supply chain business partners’ information service applications, which are loosely distributed among participants with a wide range of hardware and software capabilities, are immensely important issue from operation of global supply chain. Web service is an information technology-based solution for system interoperability; and in this technology business services are described in a standard web service description language (WSDL). Establishing the compatibility of services is an important prerequisite to service provision in web service operation. Web service has embraced the concepts of enriching distributed information systems with machine-understandable semantic metadata (known as ontology); and these new breed of web services are known as semantic web service. In this way, semantic web service provides a common framework for web-based services, which allows data to be shared and reuse across application, enterprise, and extended community boundaries.

Semantic Interoperability in Internet of Things: Architecture, Protocols, and Research Challenges
A Semantic Web Service, like conventional web services, is the server end of a client-server system for machine-to-machine interaction via the Web. Semantic services are a component of the semantic Web because they use mark-up which makes data machine-readable in a detailed and sophisticated way (as compared with human-readable HTML which is usually not easily “understood” by computer programs).
