Abstract

Web services composition has emerged as a solution to answer the requester's requirements. However, the selection of an appropriate Web service has become a difficult task due to the number of Web services present on the Web and mostly they offer similar functionalities. User preferences are a key factor that can be used to rank candidate services and retain only the best ones. To improve the process of web service composition the authors propose a Case-Based Planning (CBP) approach based on preferences which uses successful experiences in past to solve similar problems at present or/and in the future. How to make a choice base on non-functional factors becomes a problem that need to be solved. This paper, argues that the selection should be considered in a global manner based on the user's preferences. The authors present a framework that deals with web service composition based on user preferences and CBP method. Results obtained offer more than a solution to the user and taking both functional and non-functional requirements.
